HOW TO PRAY SALÂTUL JANAZA.

Most of us we  don't know what to say during Salatul janaaza (Burial prayers)​:

Here is how to pray Salatul Janaaza.

👇👇👇👇

1- ​After the First Takbeer​: Recite Surat Al-Fatiha.

1. Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem

2. Alhamdu lillaahi Rabbil 'aalameen

3. Ar-Rahmaanir-Raheem

4. Maaliki Yawmid-Deen

5. Iyyaaka na'budu wa lyyaaka nasta'een

6. Ihdinas-Siraatal-Mustaqeem

7. Siraatal-lazeena an'amta 'alaihim ghayril- maghdoobi 'alaihim wa lad-daaalleen

2- ​ After the Second Takbeer: Salat Al-Ibrahimiyya to the end.

​Allaahumma salli 'alaa Muhammadin wa 'alaa 'aali Muhammadin, kamaa sallayta 'alaa 'Ibraaheema wa 'alaa 'aali 'Ibraaheema, 'innaka Hameedun Majeed. Allaahumma baarik 'alaa Muhammadin wa 'alaa 'aali Muhammadin, kamaa baarakta 'alaa 'Ibraaheema wa 'alaa 'aali 'Ibraaheema, 'innaka Hameedun Majeed​.

3- ​ After the Third Takbeer: Pray for the dead but according to how it was narrated from our beloved Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and Peace be upon him). One of them is:

Allaahum-maghfir lihayyinaa, wa mayyitinaa, wa shaahidinaa, wa ghaa'ibinaa, wa sagheerinaa wa kabeerinaa, wa thakarinaa wa 'unthaanaa. Allaahumma man 'ahyaytahu minnaa fa'ahyihi 'alal-'Islaami, wa man tawaffaytahu minnaa fatawaffahu 'alal-'eemaani, Allaahumma laa tahrimnaa 'ajrahu wa laa tudhillanaa ba'dahu​.

O Allaah! forgive our living and our dead, those who are with us and those who are absent, our young and our old, our menfolk and our womenfolk. *O Allaah*, whomever you give life from among us give him life in Islam, and whomever you take way from us take him away in Faith. *O Allaah*, do not forbid us their reward and do not send us astray after them.

4- Then lastly after the Fourth Takbeer​: And you should pray for all Muslims.

5- And lastly end the prayer with one Salaam to the right  (Just once).

May Allāh (Sub-haanahu wata'aala) forgive our sins, forgive our dead ones and grant us Jannatul Firdaus. 

Aameen

*Civil Unrest in Nigeria: What Should I Do As a Muslim?*

Our dear country Nigeria is in a state of emergency — given the violence, destruction and killings happening in some parts of the country as the consequence of the hijack of the EndSARS protests by hoodlums, and the crackdown on protesters.

We are all devastated by the casualties of the unrest and yet unfolding crises. Sadly, the crises are now taking ethno-religious dimensions.

What should you do as a Muslim?

*1. Embrace peace and spread it*

“O You who believe! Enter absolutely into peace (Islam). Do not follow in the footsteps of satan. He is an outright enemy to you.” (Quran: 2: 208)

*2. Shun violence*

And fear the fitnah (affliction and unrest) that will not smite those who do wrong among you alone. Know that Allah is severe in punishment. (Quran 8: 25)

*3. Repel hostility with patience*

And obey Allah and His Messenger, and do not dispute (with one another) lest you lose courage and your strength departs; and be patient. Surely, Allah is with the patients. (Quran 8: 46)

*4. Don’t engage in ethnic prejudice*

O mankind! Indeed We have created you from a male (Adam) and a female (Eve) and made you into nations and tribes that you may know one another (not that you may despise). Verily, the noblest of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted. (Quran 39:13)

*5. Report unlawful activities*

And they [believers] are those who, if We give them authority in the land, establish prayer and give zakah and enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong. To Allah belongs the outcome of [all] matters. (Quran 22: 41)

*6. Be a true Muslim*

You are the best of peoples ever raised up [as an example] for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah. (Quran 3: 110)

*7. Obey law and order*

O you who have believed, obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those in authority among you. And if you disagree over anything, refer it to Allah and the Messenger, if you should believe in Allah and the Last Day. That is the best [way] and best in result. (Quran 4: 59)

*8. Seek forgiveness and pray for the nation*

And said, ‘Ask forgiveness of your Lord. Indeed, He is ever a Perpetual Forgiver. He will send [rain from] the sky upon you in [continuing] showers. And give you increase in wealth and children and provide for you gardens and provide for you rivers. (Quran 71: 10–12)

*9. Don’t share fake or inciting news*

“O you who believe! Fear Allah, and be with those who are true (in words and deeds).” [Qur’an, 9:119]

Then whoever argues with you about it after [this] knowledge has come to you — say, “Come, let us call our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves, then supplicate earnestly [together] and invoke the curse of Allah upon the liars [among us].” (Quran 3: 61)
