Repentance and seeking forgiveness
248. Allah's
Messenger (SAW) said: "By Allah, I
seek the forgiveness of Allah, and
repent to Him more than seventy times in
a day"
Reference:
Al-Bukhari, cf. Al-Asqalani, Fathul-Bari
11/101.
249.
Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: "O
people, repent to Allah, for I verily
repent to Him one hundred times a
day".
Reference:
Muslim 4/2076.
250.
Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: Whoever
says:
أَسْتَغْفِرُ
اللهَ
الَّذِي
لاَ
إِلَهَ
إلاَّ
هُوَ
الحَيُّ
القَيّوُمُ
وأَتُوبُ
إِلَيهِ
'Astaghfirullaahal-'Adheemal-lathee
laa 'ilaaha 'illaa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyoomu
wa 'atoobu 'ilayhi.
I
seek the forgiveness of Allah the
Mighty, Whom there is none worthy of
worship except Him, the Living, the
Eternal, and I repent to Him, Allah will
forgive him even if he has deserted the
army's ranks.
Reference:
Abu Dawud 2/85, At-Tirmithi 5/569, and
Al-Hakim who declared it authentic and
Ath-Thahabi agreed with him 1/511. Al-Albani
graded it authentic in Sahih At-Tirmithi
3/182. See also Jami'ul-'Usool
li-'Ahdaith Ar-Rasool 4/ 389-90 checked
by Al-Arna'ut.
251.
Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: "The
closest that the Lord comes to the slave
is in the last portion of the night. So,
if you are able to be among those who
remember Allah in this hour, then be
among them."
Reference:
At-Tirmithi, An-Nasa'i 1/279 and
Al-Hakim. See also Al-Albani, Sahih At-Tirmithi
3/183, and Jdmi'ul-'Usool with Al-Arna'ut's
checking 4/144.
252.
Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: "The
closest that the slave comes to his Lord
is when he is prostrating, so invoke
Allah much (in prostration)."
Reference:
Muslim 1/350.
253.
Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: "It
is a heavy thing for my heart if I do
not seek Allah's forgiveness a hundred
times a day."
Reference:
Muslim 4/2075. Ibn 'Athir explains that
the Prophet (SAW) was always vigilant in
his remembrance and drawing near to
Allah, and if he forgot to do any of
what he normally did from time to time,
or it slipped his mind, he felt as if he
had wronged himself and so he would
begin to seek the forgiveness of Allah.
See Jami'ul-'Usool 4/386.
Reference: Qur'an Aal-'Imran 3: 190-200; Al-Bukhari,
cf. Al-Asqalani, Fathul-Bari 8/237; Muslim 1/530.
