Majma al-Zawaid 17593 — How to seek forgiveness
وَعَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِنَّ أَوْفَى كَلِمَةٍ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَقُولَ الْعَبْدُ : اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي ، وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ ، ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي ، وَاعْتَرَفْتُ بِذَنْبِي ، وَلَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ، أَيْ رَبِّ فَاغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Malik al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The most complete word in the sight of Allah Almighty is that the servant says: 'O Allah! Indeed You are my Lord and I am Your servant. I have wronged myself, and I confess my sin, and none can forgive sins except You. O my Lord! Forgive my sins.'"
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Muhammad bin Isma'il bin Ayyash, who is da'if (weak).
