اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْفَعْ دَرَجَتَهُ فِي الْمَهْدِيِّينَ وَاخْلُفْهُ فِي عَقِبِهِ فِي الْغَابِرِينَ وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلَهُ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ وَأَفْسِحْ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَنَوِّرْ لَهُ فِيهِ

Allahummaghfir lahu warfa' darajatahu fil-mahdiyyeen, wakhlufhu fi 'aqibihi fil-ghaabireen, waghfir lana wa lahu ya Rabbal-'alameen, wafshah lahu fi qabrihi wa nawwir lahu feeh

O Allah, forgive him and elevate his station among the guided. Grant him a successor among those he leaves behind. Forgive us and him, O Lord of the worlds. Expand his grave for him and illuminate it.
