Fatwa #54627 August 2000Pakistan

When it is mentioned that someone has passed away, some say, 'Iinna lillahi wainna ilayhi raaji'una', while others say, 'Lailaha illa-llah'. Who is correct?

Answer

When one receives a sad news, one should reply, ?Innaa Ilayhi Wa Innaa Ilayhi Raaji?oon? (Verily we belong to Allah and will return to Allah)

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
