15 Powerful Dua For Forgiveness From Allah

by Amber Farzeen

Being humans, we have all made mistakes. This is a commodity we’ve heard a trillion times. Something like this often makes us tune someone out. It’s not a dismissal of the statement’s importance or truth; it’s simply a repetition of what has already been said. Our faults are understandable.
Repentance is always possible. Don’t wait until tomorrow and ask Dua for forgiveness. The future is unknown. We must confess our sins right away and as often as we can. Seeking Allah’s forgiveness should be something we often do since it is one of the essential parts of Muslim prayer. We don’t want to think to ourselves as we lay on our deathbeds, “I could have done more.”
