بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
وَصَلَّى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمَ
أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ
وَأَتُوبُ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ مَا يَكْرَهُ اللَّهُ قَوْلًا وَفِعْلًا وَخَاطِرًا وَبَاطِنًا وَظَاهِرًا
أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيَّ الْقَيُّومَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا قَدَّمْتُ وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ
وَمَا أَسْرَفْتُ وَمَا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الذُّنُوبِ وَالْآثَامِ
أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ لِذُنُوبِي كُلِّهَا سِرِّهَا وَجَهْرِهَا وَصَغِيرِهَا وَكَبِيرِهَا وَقَدِيمِهَا وَجَدِيدِهَا وَأَوَّلِهَا وَآخِرِهَا وَظَاهِرِهَا وَبَاطِنِهَا وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنْ كُلِّ ذَنْبٍ تُبْتُ إِلَيْكَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ عُدْتُ فِيهِ
وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا أَرَدْتُ بِهِ وَجْهَكَ الْكَرِيمَ فَخَالَطَهُ مَا لَيْسَ لَكَ فِيهِ رِضًا
وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا وَعَدْتُكَ بِهِ مِنْ نَفْسِي ثُمَّ أَخْلَفْتُكَ فِيهِ

وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا دَعَانِي إِلَيْهِ الْهَوَى مِنْ قِبَلِ الرُّخَصِ مِمَّا اشْتَبَهَ عَلَيَّ وَهُوَ عِنْدَكَ حَرَامٌ
وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ يَا مَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ يَا عَالِمَ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ مِنْ كُلِّ سَيِّئَةٍ عَمِلْتُهَا فِي بَيَاضِ النَّهَارِ وَسَوَادِ اللَّيْلِ فِي مَلَأٍ وَخَلَاءٍ
وَسِرٍّ وَعَلَانِيَةٍ وَأَنْتَ نَاظِرٌ إِلَيَّ إِذِ ارْتَكَبْتُهَا وَأَتَيْتُ بِهَا مِنَ الْعِصْيَانِ فَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ يَا حَلِيمُ يَا كَرِيمُ يَا رَحِيمُ

وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنَ النِّعَمِ الَّتِي أَنْعَمْتَ بِهَا عَلَيَّ فَتَقَوَّيْتُ بِهَا عَلَى مَعْصِيَتِكَ

وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ الَّتِي لَا يَعْرِفُهَا أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكَ وَلَا يَطَّلِعُ عَلَيْهَا أَحَدٌ سِوَاكَ وَلَا يَسَعُهَا إِلَّا حِلْمُكَ وَلَا يُنَجِّينِي مِنْهَا إِلَّا عَفْوُكَ
وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنْ كُلِّ يَمِينٍ سَلَفَتْ مِنِّي فَحَنِثْتُ فِيهَا وَأَنَا عِنْدَكَ مُؤَاخَذٌ بِهَا
وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ يَا مَنْ :
﴿ لَّآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّآ أَنتَ سُبْحَـٰنَكَ إِنِّى كُنتُ مِنَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ ۝
فَٱسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُۥ وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُ مِنَ ٱلْغَمِّ ۚ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نُـۨجِى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۝
وَزَكَرِيَّآ إِذْ نَادَىٰ رَبَّهُۥ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِى فَرْدًا وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلْوَٰرِثِينَ ۝ ﴾
﴿ رَّبِّ ٱغْفِرْ وَٱرْحَمْ وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰحِمِينَ ۝ ﴾

وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنْ كُلِّ فَرِيضَةٍ أَوْجَبْتَهَا عَلَيَّ فِي آنَاءِ اللَّيْلِ وَأَطْرَافِ النَّهَارِ
فَتَرَكْتُهَا خَطَأً أَوْ عَمْدًا أَوْ نِسْيَانًا أَوْ تَهَاوُنًا أَوْ جَهْلًا وَأَنَا مُعَاقَبٌ بِهَا

وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنْ كُلِّ سُنَّةٍ مِنْ سُنَنِ سَيِّدِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَخَاتَمِ النَّبِيِّينَ نَبِيِّكَ سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَرَكْتُهَا غَفْلَةً أَوْ سَهْوًا أَوْ نِسْيَانًا أَوْ تَهَاوُنًا أَوْ جَهْلًا أَوْ قِلَّةَ مُبَالَاةٍ بِهَا

وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ يَا مَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ وَأَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُكَ وَرَسُولُكَ

سُبْحَانَكَ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ لَكَ الْمُلْكُ وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَأَنْتَ حَسْبُنَا وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ نِعْمَ الْمَوْلَى وَنِعْمَ النَّصِيرُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ

يَا جَابِرَ كُلِّ كَسِيرٍ وَيَا مُؤْنِسَ كُلِّ وَحِيدٍ وَيَا صَاحِبَ كُلِّ غَرِيبٍ
وَيَا مُيَسِّرَ كُلِّ عَسِيرٍ يَا مَنْ لَا يَحْتَاجُ إِلَى الْبَيَانِ وَالتَّفْسِيرِ وَأَنْتَ عَلَى مَا تَشَاءُ قَدِيرٌ

وَصَلَّى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ بِعَدَدِ مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَبِعَدَدِ مَنْ لَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِ
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى رُوحِ سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ فِي الْأَرْوَاحِ
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى تُرْبَةِ سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ فِي التُّرَابِ
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى قَبْرِ سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ فِي الْقُبُورِ
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ صُورَةِ سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ فِي الصُّوَرِ
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ اسْمِ سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ فِي الْأَسْمَاءِ

﴿لَقَدْ جَآءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ مَا عَنِتُّمْ حَرِيصٌ عَلَيْكُم بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ ۝
فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَقُلْ حَسْبِىَ ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ ۖ وَهُوَ رَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ۝ ﴾

وَصَلَّى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمَ

English translation

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate
And may Allah Most High send blessings and peace upon our master Muhammad, and upon his family and his companions

I seek forgiveness from Allah, I seek forgiveness from Allah, I seek forgiveness from Allah
And I repent to Allah from everything Allah dislikes, in word and deed, in thought, inwardly and outwardly
I seek forgiveness from Allah the Magnificent, there is no god but Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsisting, and I repent to Him

O Allah, indeed I seek Your forgiveness for what I have put forward and what I have delayed, what I have concealed and what I have made public,
And for what I have transgressed in, and what You know better than I. You are the One who brings forward and the One who delays, and You have power over all things

I seek forgiveness from Allah, the Possessor of Majesty and Honour, for all sins and offenses
I seek forgiveness from Allah for all my sins, those hidden and those open, the small and the great, the old and the new, the first and the last, the outward and the inward, and I repent to Him

O Allah, I seek Your forgiveness for every sin from which I repented to You, then returned to it
And I seek Your forgiveness for what I intended by it Your noble Face, but it became mixed with that which You are not pleased with
And I seek Your forgiveness for what I promised You from myself, then broke that promise

And I seek Your forgiveness for what desire called me to through dispensations that were doubtful to me while they are unlawful with You
And I seek Your forgiveness, O You besides whom there is no god, O Knower of the unseen and the seen, for every evil I committed in the brightness of day and the darkness of night, in public and in private,
In secrecy and openly, while You were watching me as I committed it and brought it forth in disobedience, so I repent to You, O Forbearing One, O Generous One, O Merciful One

And I seek Your forgiveness for the blessings You bestowed upon me, which I then used as strength for disobedience to You

And I seek Your forgiveness for sins that none knows except You, none sees except You, which none can encompass except Your forbearance, and from which none can save me except Your pardon
And I seek Your forgiveness for every oath I made and then broke, while I am held accountable for it before You
And I seek Your forgiveness, O You who said:
“There is no god but You; glory be to You. Indeed, I was among the wrongdoers.
So We responded to him and saved him from distress; and thus do We save the believers.
And Zakariyya, when he called upon his Lord: ‘My Lord, do not leave me alone, while You are the best of inheritors.’”
“My Lord, forgive and have mercy, and You are the best of the merciful.”

And I seek Your forgiveness for every obligation You imposed upon me during the hours of night and the ends of the day,
Which I abandoned through error, or intentionally, or forgetfulness, or negligence, or ignorance,while I am deserving of punishment for it

And I seek Your forgiveness for every Sunnah from the practices of the Master of the Messengers and the Seal of the Prophets, Your Prophet, our master Muhammad, may Allah bless him and his family and companions and grant them peace, Which I abandoned out of heedlessness, or absentmindedness, or forgetfulness, or negligence, or ignorance, or lack of concern

And I seek Your forgiveness, O You besides whom there is no god, alone, without partner, and that our master Muhammad is Your servant and Your Messenger

Glory be to You, O Lord of the worlds. To You belongs sovereignty and to You belongs praise. You are sufficient for us and the best Disposer of affairs—the best Protector and the best Helper. There is no power nor might except through Allah, the Most High, the Magnificent

O Mender of every broken one, O Companion of every lonely one, O Friend of every stranger,
O One who makes every hardship easy, O You who have no need for explanation or interpretation, and You are powerful over whatever You will

And may Allah Most High send blessings and peace upon our master Muhammad and upon his family and companions, by the number of those who send blessings upon him and by the number of those who do not
O Allah, send blessings upon the spirit of our master Muhammad among the spirits
O Allah, send blessings upon the soil of our master Muhammad among the earth
O Allah, send blessings upon the grave of our master Muhammad among the graves
O Allah, send blessings upon the form of our master Muhammad among forms
O Allah, send blessings upon the name of our master Muhammad among names

“There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves; grievous to him is what you suffer; he is deeply concerned for you; toward the believers he is gentle and merciful.
So if they turn away, say: Allah is sufficient for me. There is no god but Him. Upon Him I rely, and He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne.”

And may Allah Most High send blessings and peace upon our master Muhammad and upon his family and companions
And all praise is for Allah, Lord of the worlds, at every moment forever, according to the number of His creation, the pleasure of His Self, the weight of His Throne, and the ink of His words
