slave, and I am faithful to my covenant and my promise
(to You) as much as I can. I seek refuge with You from all
the evil I have done. I acknowledge before You all the
blessings You have bestowed upon me, and I confess to
You all my sins. So I entreat You to forgive my sins, for
nobody can forgive sins except You.
Reward: This is the most superior way of asking for
forgiveness from Allah. If somebody recites it during the
day with firm faith in it, and dies on the same day before
the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise; and
if somebody recites it at night with firm faith in it, and
dies before the morning, he will be from the people of
Paradise. In another hadith it is mentioned that, If
someone says this in the morning, believing in it firmly,
and dies on that day before evening comes, he will enter
Paradise, and if someone says it in the evening, believing
firmly in it, and dies before morning comes, he will enter
Paradise.
