حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي بُشَيْرُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ الْعَدَوِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي شَدَّادُ بْنُ أَوْسٍ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ سَيِّدُ الاسْتِغْفَارِ أَنْ يَقُولَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَنِي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ وَأَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا صَنَعْتُ أَبُوءُ لَكَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ وَأَبُوءُ لَكَ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ قَالَ مَنْ قَالَهَا مِنَ النَّهَارِ مُوقِنًا بِهَا فَمَاتَ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُمْسِيَ فَهُوَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ وَمَنْ قَالَهَا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ وَهُوَ مُوقِنٌ بِهَا فَمَاتَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُصْبِحَ فَهُوَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ

Translation

✧ From the Prophet ﷺ, who said: The master of seeking forgiveness is that one says: "O Allah, You are my Lord. There is no god but You. You created me, and I am Your servant, and I am faithful to my covenant and promise to You as much as I am able. I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done. I acknowledge to You Your favor upon me, and I acknowledge to You my sin, so forgive me, for none forgives sins except You." He said: Whoever says it during the day with certainty in it and dies that day before evening, he is among the people of Paradise. And whoever says it at night with certainty in it and dies before morning, he is among the people of Paradise.
