Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I requested the Messenger of Allah (swalla-Allaahu alayhi wa-sallam) to teach me a supplication which I could recite in my Salat (prayer). Thereupon he said,
قُلْ : ((اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي ظَلَمتُ نَفْسِي ظُلْماً كَثِيراً ، وَلاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أنْتَ ، فَاغْفِرْ لي مَغْفِرَةً مِنْ عِنْدِكَ ، وارْحَمْنِي ، إنَّكَ أنْتَ الغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ))
"Recite:
[Allahumma innee zhalamtu nafsee zhulman katheeran, wa-laa yaghfiru al-dhdhunooba illaa Anta, faghfir lee maghfiratan min `indika, warhamnee, innaka Anta al-Ghafoor al-Raheem]
[Meaning: (O Allah! I have considerably wronged myself. There is none to forgive the sins but You. So grant me pardon and have mercy on me. You are the Most Forgiving, the Most Compassionate).'''
