اَللَّهُمَّ اْغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِتَّنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَذَكْرِنَا وَاُنْثَانَا وَصَغِيَرنَا وَكَبِيَرنَا. اَللَّهُمَّ مَنْ اَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَاَحْيِهِ عَلَى اْلاِسْلاْم وَمَنْ تَوَفّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوََّهِ عَلَى اْلاَيِمَانِ وَخُصَّ هَذَا اْلمَيّتَ بِالرَّوْحِ وَالرَّاحَةِ وَاْلمَغْفِرَةِ وَالرِّضْوانِ اَللَّهُمَّ اِنْ كَاَنَ مُحْسِنَاً فَزِدْ فِي اِحْسَانِهِ وَاِنْ كَاَنَ مُسِيئَاً فَتَجَاوَزْ عَنْهُ وَلَقِّهِ اْلاَمْنَ وَاْلبُشْرَى وَالْكَرَامَةَ وَالزُّلْفَىَ بِرحمتكَ يَا اْرحمَ الْرَّاحمين

Allahumma-ghfir li hayyina wa mayyitina wa shahidina wa gha’ ibina’ wa dhakarina wa unthana wa sagheerina wa kabeerina. Allahumma man ahyaytahu minna fa ahyihi ‘ala-l-Islam. Wa man tawaffaythu minna fa tawafahu ala’ -l-Islam. Allahumma la tahrimina ajrah, wa la taftinna ba’ dah.

Besides these, any other fit prayers may be offered.
