Dua for the Dead : Funeral Dua 2 (for forgiveness)

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا
وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا
وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا
وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا
اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ
وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الإِيمَانِ
اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُ
وَلاَ تُضِلَّنَا بَعْدَهُ

O Allah, forgive our living and our dead,
those who are present and those who are absent,
our young and our old,
our males and our females.
O Allah, whomever of us You cause to live,
let him live in Islam,
and whomever of us You cause to die,
let him die in (a state of) faith.
O Allah, do not deprive us of his reward,
and do not let us go astray after him].

Allahummaghfir liḥayyina, wa mayyitina,
wa shahidina, wa ghaibina,
wa ṣaghirina wa kabirina,
wa dhakarinā wa unthānā.
Allāhumma man aḥyaytahu minnā
fa aḥyihi alal-Islām, wa man tawaffaytahu minnā fatawaffahualal-īmān,
Allāhumma lā taḥrimnā ajrah
wa lā tuḍillanā ba`dah.


Reference:

When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) offered the funeral prayer he would say: ‘O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those who are present and those who are absent, our young and our old, our males and our females. O Allah, whomever of us You cause to live, let him live in Islam, and whomever of us You cause to die, let him die in (a state of) faith. O Allah, do not deprive us of his reward, and do not let us go astray after him.’

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى جِنَازَةٍ يَقُولُ ‏ “‏ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الإِيمَانِ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُ وَلاَ تُضِلَّنَا بَعْدَهُ ‏”‏‏
