Q
What is the significance of seeking forgiveness from Allah in one’s prayers?
A
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, “Allahumma inni zalumtu nafsi zulman kathiran, Wala yaghfiru dh-dhunuba illa anta,
fa ghfir li maghfiratan min `indika, wa r-hamni, innaka anta l-ghafuru r-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).
