alnnasihu lillahi wa lirasulihi wa li'amiri almu'minina

who acted sincerely for the sake of Allah, His Messenger, the Commander of the Faithful,

وَٱلْحَسَنِ وَٱلْحُسَيْنِ عَلَيْهِمُ اَلسَّلاَمُ

walhasani walhusayni `alayhim as-salamu

al-Hasan, and al-Husayn, peace be upon them.

اشْهَدُ انَّكَ قُتِلْتَ مَظْلُوماً

ashhadu annaka qutilta mazluman

I bear witness that you were slain wrongly.

فَلَعَنَ ٱللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ وَٱسْتَحَلَّ دَمَكَ

fala`ana allahu man qatalaka wastahalla damaka

So, may Allah curse those who slew you and dared to shed your blood

وَحَشَىٰ قُبُورَهُمْ نَاراً

wa hasha quburahum naran

and may He stuff their graves with fire.

اشْهَدُ انَّكَ لَقِيتَ ٱللَّهَ وَهُوَ رَاضٍ عَنْكَ

ashhadu annaka laqita allaha wa huwa radin `anka

I bear witness that you met Allah while He is pleased with You

بِمَا فَعَلْتَ وَنَصَحْتَ

وَاشْهَدُ انَّكَ قَدْ بَلَغْتَ دَرَجَةَ ٱلشُّهَدَاءِ

wa ashhadu annaka qad balaghta darajata alshshuhada'i

And I bear witness that you have attained the rank of the martyrs,

وَجُعِلَ رُوحُكَ مَعَ ارْوَاحِ ٱلسُّعَدَاءِ

wa ju`ila ruhuka ma`a arwahi alssu`ada'i

your soul has been included with the souls of the delighted ones

بِمَا نَصَحْتَ لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ مُجْتَهِداً

bima nasahta lillahi wa lirasulihi mujtahidan

for you painstakingly acted with sincerity for Allah and for His Messenger,

وَبَذَلْتَ نَفْسَكَ فِي ذَاتِ ٱللَّهِ وَمَرْضَاتِهِ

wa badhalta nafsaka fi dhati allahi wa mardatihi

and sacrificed yourself for the sake of Allah and for the sake of attaining His pleasure.

فَرَحِمَكَ ٱللَّهُ وَرَضِيَ عَنْكَ

farahimaka allahu wa radiya `anka

So, may Allah have mercy upon you and be pleased with you,

وَحَشَرَكَ مَعَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ ٱلطَّاهِرِينَ

wa hasharaka ma`a muhammadin wa alihi alttahirina

may He include you with the group of Muhammad and his Immaculate Household,

وَجَمَعَنَا وَإِيَّاكُمْ مَعَهُمْ فِي دَارِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ

wa jama`ana wa iyyakum ma`ahum fi dari alnna`imi

and may He gather us with you and them in the Abode of Bliss.

وَسَلامٌ عَلَيْكَ وَرَحْمَةُ ٱللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

wa salamun `alayka wa rahmatu allahi wa barakatuhu

Peace and Allah’s mercy and blessings be upon you.

 

 

You may then offer a two-unit prayer and present it as a gift to Hani' ibn `Urwah. Then, you may pray Almighty Allah to grant you your requests.

 

 

As for bidding farewell to him, you may say the same form of wada` (bidding farewell) that is said to Muslim ibn `Aqil.
