Allahummaghfir li-abi wa li-ummi wa liman kana lahuma wudda
O Allah, forgive my father, my mother, and those who were dear to them.
The Prophet ﷺ said: "The finest act of goodness to parents is that the son should maintain ties with his father's loved ones." Ibn Umar (RA) narrated that after his father passed, he would honor Umar's friends and seek forgiveness for them. This du'a extends your birr to your parents' loved ones.
