Prophetic Supplications: Asking for Forgiveness

Asking for Forgiveness

The Holy Prophet (PBUH&HF) said: Know this greatest of supplication for forgiveness.

 اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَنِي وَ أَنَا عَبْدُكَ وَ عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَ أَبُوءُ بِنِعْمَتِكَ عَلَيَّ وَ أَبُوءُ لَكَ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي إِنَّهُ لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ

 O Allah, You are my Lord, there is no god but You. You have created me, and I am Your servant, committed to Your covenant and I acknowledge Your blessings upon me and confess my sins to You, so, forgive me, as indeed, no one forgives sins except You.
