اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِفُلَانٍ (بِاسْمِهِ)، وَارْفَعْ دَرَجَتَهُ فِي الْمَهْدِيِّينَ، وَاخْلُفْهُ فِي عَقِبِهِ فِي الْغَابِرِينَ، وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلَهُ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ، وَافْسَحْ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ، وَنَوِّرْ لَهُ فِيهِ

Allahummaghfir lifulanin (biasmih), warfa' darajatahu fil-mahdiyyin, wakhlufhu fi 'aqibihi fil-ghabirin, waghfir lana walahu ya rabbal-'alamin, wafsah lahu fi qabrih, wanawwir lahu fih

O Allah, forgive so-and-so (name him), raise his rank among the rightly guided, and take his place among those he leaves behind. Forgive us and him, O Lord of the worlds; make his grave spacious for him and fill it with light for him.
