Dua n°156

The dua in Arabic:

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ، وَعافِهِ، وَاعْفُ عَنْهُ، وَأَكْرِمْ نُزُلَهُ، وَوَسِّعْ مُدْخَلَهُ، وَاغْسِلْهُ بِالْمَاءِ وَالثَّـلْجِ وَالْبَرَدِ، وَنَقِّهِ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا كَمَا نَقَّيْتَ الثَّوْبَ الأَبْيَضَ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ، وَأَبْدِلْهُ داراً خَيْراً مِنْ دَارِهِ، وَأَهْلاً خَيْراً مِنْ أَهْلِهِ، وَزَوْجَاً خَيْراً مِنْ زَوْجِهِ، وَأَدْخِلْهُ الْجَنَّةَ، وَأَعِذْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ القَبْرِ(وَ عَذَابِ النَّارِ)

The invocation in english:

« O Allah, forgive and have mercy upon him, excuse him and pardon him, and make honourable his reception. Expand his entry, and cleanse him with water, snow, and ice, and purify him of sin as a white robe is purified of filth. Exchange his home for a better home, and his family for a better family, and his spouse for a better spouse. Admit him into the Garden, protect him from the punishment of the grave (and the torment of the Fire). »

Allâhoumma ghfir lahou wa rhamhou wa 'âfihi, wa 'fou 'anhou, wa akrim nouzulahou, wa wassi' moudkhalahou, wa ghsilhou bi-l-mâ i wa th-thalji wa-l-baradi.
