mayyitt prayer

Most of us don't know what to say during Salat Al-Janaza (Burial prayer)​. Here is the correct procedure:

1- ​After the First Takbeer​: Recite Surat Al-Fatiha.

*1. Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem
*2. Alhamdu lillaahi Rabbil 'aalameen
*3. Ar-Rahmaanir-Raheem
*4. Maaliki Yawmid-Deen
*5. Iyyaaka na'budu wa lyyaaka nasta'een
*6. Ihdinas-Siraatal-Mustaqeem
*7. Siraatal-lazeena an'amta 'alaihim ghayril- maghdoobi 'alaihim wa lad-daaalleen

2- ​ After the Second Takbeer: Salat Al-Ibrahimiyya to the end, not Salat Fatih pls

​Allaahumma salli 'alaa Muhammadin wa 'alaa 'aali Muhammadin, kamaa sallayta 'alaa 'Ibraaheema wa 'alaa 'aali 'Ibraaheema, 'innaka Hameedun Majeed. Allaahumma baarik 'alaa Muhammadin wa 'alaa 'aali Muhammadin, kamaa baarakta 'alaa 'Ibraaheema wa 'alaa 'aali 'Ibraaheema, 'innaka Hameedun Majeed​.

3- ​ After the Third Takbeer: Pray for the dead but according to how it was narrated from our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. One of them is:

Allaahum-maghfir lihayyinaa, wa mayyitinaa, wa shaahidinaa, wa ghaa'ibinaa, wa sagheerinaa wa kabeerinaa, wa thakarinaa wa 'unthaanaa. Allaahumma man 'ahyaytahu minnaa fa'ahyihi 'alal-'Islaami, wa man tawaffaytahu minnaa fatawaffahu 'alal-'eemaani, Allaahumma laa tahrimnaa 'ajrahu wa laa tudhillanaa ba'dahu​.

O Allaah! forgive our living and our dead, those who are with us and those who are absent, our young and our old, our menfolk and our womenfolk. *O Allaah*, whomever you give life from among us give him life in Islam, and whomever you take way from us take him away in Faith. *O Allaah*, do not forbid us their reward and do not send us astray after them.

4- Then you say a Fourth Takbeer and pause for a little while, then you say one Tasleem to the right (just onc), saying “Assalaamu ‘alaykum wa rahmat-Allaah.”
