Hadith 963 Part A

I heard it from 'Auf b. Malik that the Prophet (ﷺ) said prayer on the dead body , and I remembered his prayer : " O Allah ! forgive him , have mercy upon him , give him peace and absolve him. Receive him with honour and make his grave spacious ; wash him with water , snow and hail. Cleanse him from faults as Thou wouldst cleanse a white garment from impurity. Requite him with an abode more excellent than his abode , with a family better than his family , and with a mate better than his mate. Admit him to the Garden , and protect him from the torment of the grave and the torment of the Fire." ('Auf bin Malik) said : I earnestly desired that I were this dead body.
