Chapter on Instructing the Dying (Talqin al-Muhtadarin)

Sa'd ibn 'Abdillah, from Ahmad ibn al-Hasan, from 'Amr ibn Sa'id al-Mada'ini, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqah, from 'Ammar al-Sabati, from Abu 'Abdillah عليه السلام, said: I asked Imam عليه السلام about the funeral procession - what should the one who carries it say? Imam عليه السلام said: "He should say, 'In the name of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, and by Allah سبحانه وتعالى, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى send blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad. O Allah سبحانه وتعالى, forgive the believing men and believing women.'"
