إِسْحَاقُ: حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، أَنَا أَبُو قُرَّةَ الْأَسَدِيُّ، سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيِّبِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ قَالَ:
مَا مِنِ امْرِئٍ يَأْتِي فَضَاءً مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، فَيُصَلِّي بِهِ الضُّحَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ، أَصْبَحْتُ عَبْدَكَ عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَ، أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَنِي وَلَمْ أَكُ شَيْئًا، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِذَنْبِي، فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَرْهَقَتْنِي ذُنُوبِي، وَأَحَاطَتْ بِي، إِلَّا أَنْ تَغْفِرَهَا لِي، فَاغْفِرْهَا يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ، إِلَّا غَفَرَ اللهُ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْمَقْعَدِ ذَنْبَهُ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مِثْلَ زَبَدِ الْبَحْرِ

✧ There is no person who comes to an open space of land and prays the duha prayer as two rak'ahs, then says: 'O Allah, to You belongs praise. I have become Your servant upon Your covenant and Your promise. You created me and I was nothing. I ask Your forgiveness for my sin, for my sins have indeed burdened me and surrounded me, unless You forgive them for me. So forgive them, O Most Merciful of the merciful,' except that Allah forgives his sin in that sitting place, even if it were like the foam of the sea.
