عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا انْصَرَفَ مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ اسْتَغْفَرَ ثَلاَثًا، وَقَالَ " اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ السَّلاَمُ وَمِنْكَ السَّلاَمُ تَبَارَكْتَ يَا ذَا الْجَلاَلِ وَالإِكْرَامِ " . قَالَ الْوَلِيدُ فَقُلْتُ لِلأَوْزَاعِيِّ كَيْفَ الاسْتِغْفَارُ قَالَ تَقُولُ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ .
Thawban narrated: "When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) finished his prayer, he would ask for forgiveness three times and say: 'O Allah, You are peace and from You comes peace. Blessed are You, O Possessor of majesty and honor.' Al-Walid said: I said to Al-Awza'i, 'How is seeking forgiveness?' He replied, 'Say: Astaghfirullah (I ask Allah for forgiveness), Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah.'" (Sahih Muslim 591)
