adab:667

Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The firmest supplication is to say, 'O Allah, you are my Lord and I am Your slave. I have wronged myself and I admit my wrong action. Only You forgive wrong actions, Lord, forgive me.'"  

الأدب المفرد:٦٦٧حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ جَمِيلٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي حُسَيْنٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَوْثَقَ الدُّعَاءِ أَنْ تَقُولَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي وَاعْتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبِي لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي
