Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you have indeed committed a sin, then seek forgiveness from Allah and turn to Him in repentance, because the way to repent from any sin is to express remorse over it and to seek forgiveness for it."
