- اللهم امدد في أعمارهم مع الصحة والعافية في طاعتك ورضاك، اللهم عافهم فِي أبدانهم وأسماعهم وأبصارهم وأنفسهم وجوارحهم، واجعلهم من المعافين من البلاء برحمتك يا أرحم الراحمين. اللهم اجعلهم من السعداء الأتقياء الأنقياء الأغنياء الأسخياء الحلماء الرحماء العلماء الأصحاء، اللهم اجعل مخافتك في قلوبهم، واجعل مراقبة سمعك وبصرك أمام أعينهم وفي أقوالهم وأفعالهم وحركاتهم وسكناتهم، رب آت كلاً منهم مايتمناه ومايشتهيه مما تحبه وترضاه. اللهم حبب إليهم الإيمان وزينه في قلوبهم، وكرِّه إليهم الكفر والفسوق والعصيان، واجعلهم من الراشدين، فضلاً منك ونعمة وأنت خير الرازقين.

dua for loved ones who passed away
When a loved one returns back to Allah, it is undeniable that we experience a range of emotions under grief.
When someone dies in muslim religion, immediately they perform Dua. All the loved ones recite “Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un” meaning, Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to him we will return. This is directly taken from the Quran in the second Surah – Al-Baqarah. These words indicate that this prayer can be recited in any situation from death to facing disasters.
1, Dua for the deceased :
“Allaahummaghfir li (name of the person) warfa’ darajatahu fil-mahdiyyeena, wakhlufhu fee ‘aqibihi fil-ghaabireena , waghfir-lanaa wa lahu yaa Rabbal-‘aalameena, wafsah lahu fee qabrihi wa nawwir lahu feehi”
Translation: O Allah, forgive [name of the person] and elevate his station among those who are guided. Send him along the path of those who came before, and forgive us and him, O Lord of the worlds. Enlarge for him his grave and shed light upon him in it.
2, Dua for their forgiveness
Allaahum-maghfir lihayyinaa, wa mayyitinaa, wa shaahidinaa, wa ghaa’ibinaa, wa sagheerinaa wa kabeerinaa, wa thakarinaa wa ‘unthaanaa. Allaahumma man ‘ahyaytahu minnaa fa’ahyihi ‘alal-‘Islaami, wa man tawaffaytahu minnaa fatawaffahu ‘alal-‘eemaani, Allaahumma laa tahrimnaa ‘ajrahu wa laa tudhillanaa ba’dahu
Translation: O Allah forgive our living and our dead, those who are with us and those who are absent, our young and our old, our menfolk and our womenfolk. O Allah, whomever you give life from among us give him life in Islam, and whomever you take way from us take him away in Faith. O Allah, do not forbid us their reward and do not send us astray after them.
3, Dua for mercy and better in the hereafter
Allaahum-maghfir lahu warhamhu, wa ‘aafihi, wa’fu ‘anhu, wa ‘akrim nuzulahu, wa wassi’ mudkhalahu, waghsilhu bilmaa’i waththalji walbaradi, wa naqqihi minal-khataayaa kamaa naqqaytath-thawbal-‘abyadha minad-danasi, wa ‘abdilhu daaran khayran min daarihi, wa ‘ahlan khayran min ‘ahlihi, wa zawjan khayran min zawjihi, wa ‘adkhilhul-jannata, wa. ‘a’ithhu min ‘athaabil-qabri
Translation: O Allah, forgive them and have mercy on them and give them strength and pardon them. Be generous to them and cause their entrance to be wide and wash them with water and snow and hail. Cleanse them of their transgressions as white cloth is cleansed of stains. Give them an abode better than their home, and a family better than their family and a spouse better than their spouse. Take them into Paradise and protect them from the punishment of the grave.
