"عَنْ عَلِىٍّ قَالَ: دَعَانِى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا عَلِىُّ! إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلى جِنازَةِ رَجُلٍ فَقُلْ: اللَّهُمَّ هَذَا عَبْدُكَ ابْنُ عَبْدِكَ ابْنُ أَمَتِكَ، مَاضٍ فِى حُكْمِكَ، خَلَقْتَهُ وَلَمْ يَكُ شَيْئًا مَذْكُورًا، نَزَلَ بِكَ وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ مَنْزُولٍ بِهِ، اللَّهُمَّ لَقِّنْهُ حُجَّتَهُ، وَأَلْحِقْهُ بِنَبِيِّهِ محمدٍ ﷺ، وَثَبِّتْهُ بِالقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ فَإِنَّهُ افْتَقرَ إِلَيْكَ وَاسْتغْنَيْتَ عَنْهُ، كَان يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلهَ إلَّا اللهُ فَاغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ، وَلَا تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُ وَلَا تَفْتِنَّا بَعْدَهُ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَان زَكِيّا فَزَكِّهِ، وَإنْ كَان خَاطِئًا فَاغْفِرْ لَهُ".

"From 'Ali, he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called me and said: 'O 'Ali! When you pray over the funeral of a man, say: O Allah, this is Your servant, the son of Your servant, the son of Your handmaid, who is subject to Your judgment. You created him when he was not a thing worth mentioning. He has come to You, and You are the best to whom one comes. O Allah, grant him his proof, join him to Your Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, and make him firm with the firm word, for he was in need of You and You were not in need of him. He used to testify that there is no god but Allah. So forgive him and have mercy on him, do not deprive us of his reward, and do not test us after him. O Allah, if he was pure, then purify him, and if he was a sinner, then forgive him.'"
