GG5: 冥福を祈る pray [have a mass read] for the repose of sb's soul |

Comments: |
No, the Buddhism tag is for terms which are specific to that religion, or where the term is used predominately there. This one is used a lot for Christian contexts - see the GG "mass read". |

And Taoism?
Seems better to mark "Buddhist" given all the juxtapositions with Christian phrases than to leave wholly unmarked.
I suspect that this is so engrained in Japanese culture (like RIP in Western culture) that its use expands outward to other religions and non-religious people. I think it's still worth noting (and feel the same with RIP/Christianity), that it is underlyingly a Buddhist sentiment.
wikipedia article has a whole section called "タブー", and points out you might want to avoid this with Christians and Atheists. Safe and neutral:
