Hadith.466 - When the Messenger of Allah (sw) offered the funeral prayer over a deceased person, he would recite the first takbir and then recite the testimony of faith (shahada). He would then recite the second takbir, send blessings upon the Prophet and his family, and make supplications. Upon the third takbir, he would pray for the believing men and women. After the fourth takbir, he would supplicate for the deceased, And then conclude with a fifth takbir before leaving. When Allah (swt), the Exalted, forbade him from praying over the hypocrites, he recited the first takbir, recited the shahada, then recited the second takbir, sent blessings upon the Prophet and his family, recited the third takbir, and prayed for the believing men and women. Upon the fourth takbir, he did not offer any supplication for the deceased and then concluded.
466 - وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى مَيِّتٍ كَبَّرَ فَتَشَهَّدَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ فَصَلَّى عَلَى اَلنَّبِيِّ وَ آلِهِ وَ دَعَا ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَ دَعَا لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ اَلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ اَلرَّابِعَةَ وَ دَعَا لِلْمَيِّتِ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَ اِنْصَرَفَ فَلَمَّا نَهَاهُ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ عَلَى اَلْمُنَافِقِينَ فَكَبَّرَ وَ تَشَهَّدَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ فَصَلَّى عَلَى اَلنَّبِيِّ وَ آلِهِ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَ دَعَا لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ اَلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ اَلرَّابِعَةَ وَ اِنْصَرَفَ فَلَمْ يَدْعُ لِلْمَيِّتِ.
