Dua 1: Upon Hearing of the Death of a Muslim

Ibn Abbas I reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Death comes as a shock. When one of you receives news of the death of his brother, let him say:”

إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ ❁ وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ ❁ اللَّهُمَّ اكْتُبْهُ عِنْدَكَ فِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ ❁ وَاجْعَلْ كِتَابَهُ فِي عِلِّيِّينَ ❁ وَاخْلُفْهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ فِي الْغَابِرِينَ ❁ وَلَا تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُ وَلَا تَفْتِنَّا بَعْدَهُ ❁
Innā li-Llāhi wa-innā ilayhi rājiʿūn, wa-innā ilā Rabbinā la-munqalibūn. Allāhumma ktubhu ʿindaka fī l-muḥsinīna, wa-jʿal kitābahu fī ʿIlliyyīna, wa-khlufhu fī ahlihi fī l-ghābirīna, wa-lā taḥrimnā ajrahu wa-lā taftinnā baʿdah.
We belong to Allah and to Him we return, and indeed we shall return to our Lord. O Allah, record him with You among the righteous, place his record in Illiyyin, take his place in caring for his family who remain, do not deprive us of his reward, and do not put us to trial after him.
Reference Ibn as-Sunni (566)

Dua 2: For Death in the City of the Prophet ﷺ

Hafsah J, the Mother of the Believers, reported that Umar I would supplicate: “O Allah, grant me martyrdom in Your path and cause me to die in the land of Your Messenger ﷺ.” She asked him, “How can that be?” He replied, “Allah will bring it about if He wills.”

اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنِي شَهَادَةً فِي سَبِيلِكَ ❁ وَاجْعَلْ مَوْتِي فِي بَلَدِ رَسُولِكَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ❁
Allāhumma rzuqnī shahādatan fī sabīlika, wa-jʿal mawtī fī baladi rasūlika ṣallā Llāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam.
O Allah, grant me martyrdom in Your path, and cause me to die in the city of Your Messenger, may Allah send prayers and peace upon him.
Reference Al-Bukhari (1890)

Dua 3: Upon Learning of the Death of an Enemy

Abdullah ibn Mas’ud I reported: “I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, Allah has killed Abu Jahl.’ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said:”

الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي نَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَأَعَزَّ دِينَهُ ❁
Al-ḥamdu li-Llāhi lladhī naṣara ʿabdahu wa-aʿazza dīnah.
Praise be to Allah, Who granted victory to His slave and made His religion mighty.
Reference Ibn as-Sunni (567)

Dua 4: When Hardship Makes One Wish for Death

Anas I reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “None of you should wish for death because of a hardship that has befallen him. If he feels compelled to do so, let him say:”

اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مَا كَانَتِ الْحَيَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي ❁ وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا كَانَتِ الْوَفَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي ❁
Allāhumma aḥyinī mā kānati l-ḥayātu khayran lī, wa-tawaffanī idhā kānati l-wafātu khayran lī.
O Allah, let me live for as long as life is better for me, and cause me to die when death is better for me.
Reference Muslim (2680), Al-Bukhari (5671)
