The leading duʿāʿ for seeking forgiveness (istighfār)

abudawud:5070Aḥmad b. Yūnus > Zuhayr > al-Walīd b. Thaʿlabah al-Ṭāʾī > Ibn Buraydah from his father

from the Prophet ﷺ who said: "If anyone says in the morning or in the evening: 'O Allah! You are my Lord; there is no god except You, You have created me, and I am Your servant and I hold on to Your covenant and promise as much as I can; I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done: I acknowledge Your favour upon me, and I acknowledge my sin. So pardon me, for none but You pardons sins,' and he dies during the daytime or during the night, he will enter Paradise."  

أبو داود:٥٠٧٠حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ ثَعْلَبَةَ الطَّائِيُّ عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَنْ قَالَ حِينَ يُصْبِحُ أَوْ حِينَ يُمْسِي: (اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، خَلَقْتَنِي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ وَأَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ، أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا صَنَعْتُ، أَبُوءُ بِنِعْمَتِكَ وَأَبُوءُ بِذَنْبِي، فَاغْفِرْ لِي إِنَّهُ لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ) فَمَاتَ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ أَوْ مِنْ لَيْلَتِهِ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ۔»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever says when he reaches the evening: “I am pleased with Allah as ˹my˺ Lord, with Islam as ˹my˺ religion, and with Muhammad ﷺ as ˹my˺ Prophet," it is a duty upon Allah to please him."  

Abū ʿĪsá said that this Ḥadīth is Ḥasan-Gharīb in this particular context.
الترمذي:٣٣٨٩حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الأَشَجُّ حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعْدٍ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمَرْزُبَانِ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ ؓ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ قَالَ حِينَ يُمْسِي: (رَضِيتُ بِاللَّهِ رَبًّا وَبِالإِسْلاَمِ دِينًا وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ نَبِيًّا) كَانَ حَقًّا عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يُرْضِيَهُ۔»  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ

ahmad:528ʿAbdullāh > Muḥammad b. Isḥāq al-Musayyabī > Anas b. ʿIyāḍ > Abū Mawdūd > Muḥammad b. Kaʿb > Abān b. ʿUthmān > ʿUthmān

that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever says, 'In the name of Allah with Whose name nothing on earth or in heaven can cause harm, and he is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing' three times, will not be struck unaware by calamity until night comes, and whoever says it in the evening will not be struck unaware by calamity until morning comes, Allah Willing.”  

أحمد:٥٢٨حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْمُسَيَّبِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ عِيَاضٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَوْدُودٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ عَنْ أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَنْ قَالَ: (بِسْمِ اللهِ الَّذِي لَا يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ شَيْءٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلا فِي السَّمَاءِ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ) ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، لَمْ تَفْجَأْهُ فَاجِئَةُ بَلاءٍ حَتَّى اللَّيْلِ، وَمَنْ قَالَهَا حِينَ يُمْسِي لَمْ تَفْجَأْهُ فَاجِئَةُ بَلاءٍ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ۔»
