The Greatest Invocation of Forgiveness
Shaikh Abdul-Razzaaq Ibn Abdul-Muhsin al-Badr | Dar as-Sunnah Publishers
Beseeching Allāh for forgiveness is amongst the greatest means in getting close to Him and attaining His Pleasure in this world and the Hereafter. In the noble Prophetic guidance, the Messenger of Allāh said the best du’a (invocation) by which forgiveness should be sought is called ‘Sayyid Al-Istighfār’. It is composed of a few words with profound meanings, which the Prophet keenly taught his ‘Ummah. He said, ‘Whoever reads it during the day with firm faith in it and dies on the same day before the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise. And whoever reads it at night with firm faith in it and dies before the morning, he will be from the people of Paradise.” [Al-Bukhari, 6306]
Before you dear reader is a small contemporary work explaining the immense benefits of
‘Sayyid Al-Istighfār’. It should be memorised by every Muslim and its meanings understood and internalised for heightened impact and benefit. The author (may Allāh bless him) discusses the du’a, elucidating its beautiful composition correctly, and explaining the meaning of repentance, its importance and Allāh’s Love for those who turn to Him in true repentance.

The Invalidations of Actions
The Muslim is in a trade whose profit is the highest paradise, by keeping a strict account of one firstly over the accounts of worldly profits.
So it is incumbent on everybody who has firm resolute, believes in Allah and the last day that he should occupy himself with self accountability. He must restrict himself upon this in his movements, whilst stationary and in his thoughts, because every moment in a person’s life is like an expensive jewel.
This is because the soul inclines towards what may benefit it from wealth and status. It goes into excesses, thus invalidating its actions, because what sprouts in spring may kill or eat up nothing but the sweet greenery.
So it is important to know the characteristics which the soul finds pleasant, thus invalidating one’s actions by them and losing the reward while one does not know.
