Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullhi wa barakatuhu
Our elder and muadhin, Iftikhar Hussain, just passed away. He was a very punctual and regular musalli at Al Huda.
إِنَّا لله وإنَّا إليه راجعون
اللهُـمِّ اغْفِـرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْـه ، وَعافِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنْـه ، وَأَكْـرِمْ نُزُلَـه ، وَوَسِّـعْ مُدْخَـلَه ، وَاغْسِلْـهُ بِالْمـاءِ وَالثَّـلْجِ وَالْبَـرَدْ ، وَنَقِّـهِ مِنَ الْخطـايا كَما نَـقّيْتَ الـثَّوْبَ الأَبْيَـضَ مِنَ الدَّنَـسْ ، وَأَبْـدِلْهُ داراً خَـيْراً مِنْ دارِه ، وَأَهْلاً خَـيْراً مِنْ أَهْلِـه ، وَزَوْجَـاً خَـيْراً مِنْ زَوْجِه ، وَأَدْخِـلْهُ الْجَـنَّة ، وَأَعِـذْهُ مِنْ عَذابِ القَـبْر وَعَذابِ النّـار
اللهُـمِّ اغْفِـرْ لِحَيِّـنا وَمَيِّتِـنا وَشـاهِدِنا ، وَغائِبِـنا ، وَصَغيـرِنا وَكَبيـرِنا ، وَذَكَـرِنا وَأُنْثـانا . اللهُـمِّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْـتَهُ مِنّا فَأَحْيِـهِ عَلى الإِسْلام ،وَمَنْ تَوَفَّـيْتَهُ مِنّا فَتَوَفَّـهُ عَلى الإِيـمان اللهُـمِّ
إِنَّ أخانا في ذِمَّـتِك ، وَحَبْـلِ جِـوارِك ، فَقِـهِ مِنْ فِتْـنَةِ الْقَـبْرِ وَعَذابِ النّـار ، وَأَنْتَ أَهْلُ الْوَفـاءِ وَالْـحَقِّ ، فَاغْفِـرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْـهُ ، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الغَـفورُ الـرَّحيم
اللهُـمِّ عَبْـدُكَ وَابْنُ أَمَـتِك، احْتـاجَ إِلى رَحْمَـتِك، وَأَنْتَ غَنِـيٌّ عَنْ عَذابِـه، إِنْ كانَ مُحْـسِناً فَزِدْ في حَسَـناتِه، وَإِنْ كانَ مُسـيئاً فَتَـجاوَزْ عَنْـه
May Allāh forgive him, elevate his statuses, make every stage of his akhirah easy, give him entry in to Jannat ul firdaus without any reckoning, grant him the death of martyrs, and give patience to the family and loved ones they have left behind.
If we can all recite some Quran (Surah Fatih, Surah ikhlāṣ x 3, Surah Yaseen, or whatever one can manage), seek forgiveness for him, spend some money in the path of Allāh, or perform any deed on his behalf to lighten his burden during these times when he is not even able to utter a single subhanallah, it will be source of comfort and solace for him.
Along with some Quran, there are some initiatives we can support financially:
- the water well project I had started at the time my uncle passed away, but I will include all deceased whose information comes my way

- a madrassah in need in Pakistan, where one of my close friends studied during his stay there:
