Sunan Ibn Majah 1501 (Book 6, Hadith 69) #30853
Freedom in Praying for the Deceased

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad, Abu Bakr and Umar gave people freedom to pray for the deceased without any specific rules.

It was narrated that Jabir said: "The Messenger of Allah , Abu Bakr and 'Umar did not give us so much leeway in anything as they did with regard to the prayer for the deceased," meaning that there was nothing affixed.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ مَا أَبَاحَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ وَلاَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَلاَ عُمَرُ فِي شَىْءٍ مَا أَبَاحُوا فِي الصَّلاَةِ عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ ‏.‏ يَعْنِي لَمْ يُوَقِّتْ

Pray/Make Supplication Freely Without Anything Being Affixed For The Deceased

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the importance of praying for those who have passed away. It was narrated by Jabir that Prophet Muhammad, Abu Bakr and Umar did not give any specific instructions on how to pray for the deceased. They allowed people to make supplications freely without anything being affixed or set in stone. This shows us that we should be free in our prayers and supplications when it comes to praying for those who have passed away, as this is what our beloved Prophet taught us. We should also remember that prayer is a powerful tool which can bring comfort and peace to those who are grieving a loss.
