729. Dua for seeking forgiveness
اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي ظُلْمًا كَثِيْرًا وَلَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ فَاغْفِرْ لِي مَغْفِرَةً مِّنْ عِنْدِكَ وَارْحَمْنِيْ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُوْرُ الرَّحِيْمُ
Allaahumma inni zalamtu nafsi zulman kathiran wa laa yaghfirudh-dhunuba illaa Anta, faghfir li maghfiratan min 'indika warhamni, innaka Antal-Ghafurur-Rahim
O Allah! I have done great injustice to myself and none except You forgives sins, so bestow on me a forgiveness from You, and Have Mercy on me, You are the Forgiver, the Merciful.
Narrated by Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (RA): I asked Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to teach me an invocation so that I may invoke Allah with it in my prayer. He told me to say: (The dua is mentioned above)
