Salah (Prayer) for a Dead Person Hostile to ’A’immah

4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى عَدُوِّ الله فَقُلِ اللهمَّ إِنَّ فُلاَناً لاَ نَعْلَمُ مِنْهُ إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ عَدُوٌّ لَكَ وَلِرَسُولِكَ اللهمَّ فَاحْشُ قَبْرَهُ نَاراً وَاحْشُ جَوْفَهُ نَاراً وَعَجِّلْ بِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَتَوَلَّى أَعْدَاءَكَ وَيُعَادِي أَوْلِيَاءَكَ وَيُبْغِضُ أَهْلَ بَيْتِ نَبِيِّكَ اللهمَّ ضَيِّقْ عَلَيْهِ قَبْرَهُ فَإِذَا رُفِعَ فَقُلِ اللهمَّ لاَ تَرْفَعْهُ وَلاَ تُزَكِّهِ.
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘When you pray against the enemy of Allah say, “O Lord, we do not know of so and so except that he is Your enemy and the enemy of Your messenger. O Lord, fill up his grave with fire as well as his belly and hasten him to the fire, because he loved Your enemies, he was an enemy of Your friends and hated the family of Your Holy prophet. O Lord, constrict down his grave.’ When his body is picked up, then say, ‘O Lord, do not raise him and do not purify him.’”
