In the name of Allah , the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful [All] praise is [due] to Allah , Lord of the worlds – The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful, The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) You (Alone) we worship, and you (Alone) we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path – The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace , not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger, nor of those who went astray.
Reference of Reciting Surah fatiha in Salatul Janaza : Sahih Bukhari Vol. 2, Book 23, Hadith 419
*** Second Takbeer : Reciting Durood on Prophet ***
Allaahumma salli alaa Muhammadin wa alaa aali Muhammad kamaa sallayta alaa Ibraaheema wa alaa aali Ibraaheem innaka hameedun-majeed Allaahumma baarik alaa Muhammadin wa ‘alaa aali Muhammad kamaa baarakta alaa Ibraaheema wa alaa aali Ibraheem innaka hameedun majeed.
[Oh Allah, praise Muhammad and his family as you have praised Ibrahim and his family Verily you are the Most Praised and Glorious. Oh Allaah bless Muhammad and his family as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family Verily you are the Most Praised and Glorious.
Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 55, Number 589
*** Third & Fourth Takbeer : Dua’s for the Dead ***
1) Allahumma ighfir Iahu warhamhu wa a’fu ‘afihi, wa akrim nuzulahu wa wassi’ mudkalahu waghsilhu bi-ma’ wath-thalin wa-barad, wa naqqihi minal-khataya kama yanaqqa ath-thawb al-abyad min ad-danas. Wa abidhu daran khairan min darihi wa ahlan khayran min ahlihi, wa zawjan khayran min zawjihi, wa qihi ‘adhab al-qabri wa ‘adhab an-nar.
(O Allah, forgive him and have mercy on him, forgive him ad keep him safe and sound, honor the place where he settles and meke his entrance wide; wash him with water and snow and hail, and cleanse him of his sin as a white garment is cleansed of dirt. Give him a house better than his house and a family better than his house and a family better than his family and a wife better than his wife. Protect him from the torment of the grave and the torment of Hell-fire)
Sunan an-Nasai Vol. 3, Book 21, Hadith 1985
2) Allahummaghfir lihayyina wa mayyitina, wa shahidina wa gha’ibina, wa saghirina wa kabirina, wa dhakarina wa unthana. Allahumma man ahyaitahu minna faahyihi ‘alal-Islam, wa man tawaffaytahu minna fa tawaffahu ‘alal- iman. Allahumma la tahrimna ajrahu wa la tudillana ba’dah.
(O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those who are present and those who are absent, our young and our old, our males and our females. O Allah, whomever of us You cause to live, let him live in Islam, and whomever of us You cause to die, let him die in (a state of) faith. O Allah, do not deprive us of his reward, and do not let
us go astray after him)
Sunan Ibn-iMajah, vol.2, P.393 no.1498
