اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْفَعْ دَرَجَتَهُ فِي الْمَهْدِيِّينَ وَافْسَحْ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَنَوِّرْ لَهُ فِيهِ
Allahummagh-fir lahu warfa' darajatahu fil-mahdiyyin wafsah lahu fi qabrihi wa nawwir lahu fih
O Allah, forgive him, raise his rank among the guided, make his grave spacious, and illuminate it for him.
Four requests for the deceased that cover their entire post-death journey: forgiveness (cleanse their record), raised rank (elevate their station in Paradise), spacious grave (comfort in the barzakh), and light (illumination in the darkness of the grave). Each request addresses a different phase of the afterlife. A complete care package for someone who can no longer help themselves.
