I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "If somebody commits a sin and then says, 'O my Lord! I have sinned, please forgive me!' and his Lord says, 'My slave has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for it, I therefore have forgiven my slave (his sins).' Then he remains without committing any sin for a while and then again commits another sin and says, 'O my Lord, I have committed another sin, please forgive me,' and Allah says, 'My slave has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for it, I therefore have forgiven my slave (his sin). Then he remains without Committing any another sin for a while and then commits another sin (for the third time) and says, 'O my Lord, I have committed another sin, please forgive me,' and Allah says, 'My slave has known that he has a Lord Who forgives sins and punishes for it I therefore have forgiven My slave (his sin), he can do whatever he likes."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ عَبْدًا أَصَابَ ذَنْبًا وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ أَذْنَبَ ذَنْبًا فَقَالَ رَبِّ أَذْنَبْتُ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ أَصَبْتُ فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَقَالَ رَبُّهُ أَعَلِمَ عَبْدِي أَنَّ لَهُ رَبًّا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ وَيَأْخُذُ بِهِ غَفَرْتُ لِعَبْدِي ثُمَّ مَكَثَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ أَصَابَ ذَنْبًا أَوْ أَذْنَبَ ذَنْبًا فَقَالَ رَبِّ أَذْنَبْتُ أَوْ أَصَبْتُ آخَرَ فَاغْفِرْهُ فَقَالَ أَعَلِمَ عَبْدِي أَنَّ لَهُ رَبًّا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ وَيَأْخُذُ بِهِ غَفَرْتُ لِعَبْدِي ثُمَّ مَكَثَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ أَذْنَبَ ذَنْبًا وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ أَصَابَ ذَنْبًا قَالَ قَالَ رَبِّ أَصَبْتُ أَوْ أَذْنَبْتُ آخَرَ فَاغْفِرْهُ لِي فَقَالَ أَعَلِمَ عَبْدِي أَنَّ لَهُ رَبًّا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ وَيَأْخُذُ بِهِ غَفَرْتُ لِعَبْدِي ثَلاَثًا فَلْيَعْمَلْ مَا شَاءَ  

The Prophet ﷺ related, narrating from his Lord ﷻ, that a servant committed a sin and said, "O Allah, forgive my sin." Allah said, "My servant committed a sin and knew that he has a Lord who forgives sins and takes to account for the sin." Then the servant returned and sinned again and said, "O Lord, forgive my sin." Allah said, "My servant committed a sin and knew that he has a Lord who forgives sins and takes to account for the sin." Then the servant returned once more and sinned and said, "O Lord, forgive my sin." Allah said, "My servant committed a sin and knew that he has a Lord who forgives sins and takes to account for the sin. Do whatever you wish, for I have forgiven you." 'Abd al-Ala said, "I do not know whether he said this after the third or the fourth time: 'Do whatever you wish...'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِيمَا يَحْكِي عَنْ رَبِّهِ ﷻ قَالَ أَذْنَبَ عَبْدٌ ذَنْبًا فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي فَقَالَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَذْنَبَ عَبْدِي ذَنْبًا فَعَلِمَ أَنَّ لَهُ رَبًّا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ وَيَأْخُذُ بِالذَّنْبِ ثُمَّ عَادَ فَأَذْنَبَ فَقَالَ أَىْ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي فَقَالَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى عَبْدِي أَذْنَبَ ذَنْبًا فَعَلِمَ أَنَّ لَهُ رَبًّا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ وَيَأْخُذُ بِالذَّنْبِ ثُمَّ عَادَ فَأَذْنَبَ فَقَالَ أَىْ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي فَقَالَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَذْنَبَ عَبْدِي ذَنْبًا فَعَلِمَ أَنَّ لَهُ رَبًّا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ وَيَأْخُذُ بِالذَّنْبِ وَاعْمَلْ مَا شِئْتَ فَقَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَكَ قَالَ عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى لاَ أَدْرِي أَقَالَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَوِ الرَّابِعَةِ اعْمَلْ مَا شِئْتَ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "If a servant commits a sin and then says, 'O Lord, I have sinned, so forgive me,' his Lord says (to the angels), 'My servant has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them, so I forgive my servant.' Then he continues committing sins and says, 'O Lord, I have sinned, so forgive me,' and his Lord says (to the angels), 'My servant has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them, so I forgive my servant.' Then he continues committing sins and says, 'O Lord, I have sinned, so forgive me,' and his Lord says (to the angels), 'My servant has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them, so I forgive my servant.'"

[Machine] "Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ that a man committed a sin and said, 'O Lord, I have committed a sin' or he said, 'I have performed a sinful act, so forgive me.' Allah (may He be glorified and exalted) said, 'My servant has committed a sin and he knows that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them; I have forgiven My servant.' Then, he committed another sin or said, 'He committed another sin.' He said, 'O Lord, I have committed a sin, so forgive me.' Allah (may He be glorified and exalted) said, 'My servant has committed a sin and he knows that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them; I have forgiven My servant.' Then, he committed another sin or said, 'He committed another sin.' He said, 'O Lord, I have committed a sin, so forgive me.' Allah (may He be glorified and exalted) said, 'My servant has committed a sin and he knows that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them; I have forgiven My servant.' My servant has committed a sin and he knows that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them; I have forgiven My servant.' He bears witness to you all that Allah has forgiven his servant; let him do whatever he wishes."
