Prayer for the Dead

---

As the name implies, prayer for the dead is a prayer that we pray for people who have died. Because praying for people who have died is our obligation as Muslims who are still alive.

Especially if the person who died is one of our family or relatives or even our parents. Because the prayers of pious and pious children are the ones who can help their parents in the afterlife. Even the rewards and good deeds of both will continue to flow.

From Abu Hurairah, Rasulullah SAW said:

إِذَا مَاتَ الْإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ صَدَقَةٌ جَارِيَةٌ وَعِلْمٌ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ وَوَلَدٌ صَالِحٌ يَدْعُو لَهُ

Meaning: “If a person dies, his charity is cut off except for three things; Alms jariyah, knowledge that is utilized, and righteous children who pray for it." (Tirmidhi Hadith Number 1297)

Only prayer is expected by the deceased. Because sending prayers will be more meaningful and desirable than the world and everything in it. They will be so happy, when sent prayers. Because the power of prayer is extraordinary.

Allah SWT will surely always give His grace to those who believe to be able to spread goodness. One way is to pray for people who have died.

Hadith About the Benefits of Praying for the Dead

There are several hadiths that discuss some of the benefits of praying for people who have died, namely:

Allah SWT said in QS. Al-Baqarah verse 180:

كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ إِن تَرَكَ خَيْرًا الْوَصِيَّةُ لِلْوَالِدَيْنِ وَالأقْرَبِينَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ حَقًّا عَلَى الْمُتَّقِينَ

It means :

"It is obligatory upon you, when one of you comes or signs death. If he leaves a lot of wealth, make a will for his parents and close relatives in a ma'ruf manner. This is an obligation on those who are pious.”

Allah SWT said in QS. Al-Isra verse 23:

وَقَضَى رَبُّكَ أَلاَّ تَعْبُدُواْ إِلاَّ إِيَّاهُ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا

It means :

"And your Lord has commanded you not to worship other than Him and you should do good to your mother and father as well as possible."

Rasulullah SAW said:

“A corpse in its grave is like a drowning man asking for help. He is looking forward to the prayers of his father, mother, children and friends he trusts. When the prayer has reached him, he likes it more than the world and everything in it. And indeed Allah SWT conveys the prayers of the inhabitants of the world for the graves as big as mountains. As for gifts from people who are still alive to people who have died, they ask forgiveness from Allah SWT for them and give alms on their behalf. (HR Ad – Dailami)

Rasulullah SAW said:

"There are four things that can be done for people who have died, namely praying and making istighfar for both of them, carrying out the messages they leave, do good to their families and friends, and connect ties that do not continue except through the intercession of both of them."

Rasulullah SAW prays for people who are in their final resting place, namely:

السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلَ الدِّيَارِ مِنْ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُسْلِمِينَ وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَلَاحِقُونَ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ لَنَا وَلَكُمْ الْعَافِيَةَ

Meaning: "Hopefully safety will pour out for the occupants (graves) from among the believers and Muslims and we, God willing, will overtake you all. I ask Allah for us and for you Al 'Afiyah (safety)." (Muslim Hadith Number 1620)

Imam Muslim narrated from 'Abdullah bin 'Umar that Rasulullah SAW said:

أَبَرُّ الْبِرِّ أَنْ يَصِلَ الرَّجُلُ وُدَّ أَبِيهِ

Meaning: "Indeed the main virtue is if someone continues the relationship (silaturrahim) with the family of his father's best friend."
