اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْنِي عِنْدَ السُّؤَالِ، اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْنِي بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ

Allahumma thabbitni 'indas-su'al. Allahumma thabbitni bil-qawlith-thabiti fil-hayatid-dunya wa fil-akhirah

O Allah, keep me firm at the time of questioning. O Allah, make me firm with the firm word in the life of this world and in the Hereafter.

SahihQuran 14:27, Sahih al-Bukhari 1369, Sahih Muslim 2871

After burial, two angels — Munkar and Nakir — will ask three questions: Who is your Lord? What is your religion? Who is your Prophet? Allah says: "Allah keeps firm those who believe, with the firm word, in worldly life and in the Hereafter" (14:27). The Prophet ﷺ confirmed this verse refers to the questioning in the grave. Al-Bara ibn Azib (RA) narrated: the believer will answer confidently, but the disbeliever or hypocrite will stammer: "I don't know, I heard people saying something and I said it too." This du'a asks for that firmness — the ability to answer with certainty comes not from memorization but from lived faith that Allah makes firm in the crucial moment.

O Allah, forgive him, have mercy on him, grant him well-being, pardon him, honor his reception, expand his entrance, and wash him with water, snow, and hail.

Admit him to Paradise and protect him from the punishment of the grave and the torment of the Fire.
