At the end of the above steps recite: Ash-hadu an la ilaha illal lahu wa ash-hadu anna Muammadan 'abduhu wa rasuluh. (I testify that there is no god but Allah and He is One and has no partner and I also testify that Muhammad is His servant and messenger). [Muslim 1:209, Abu Dawud, an-Nisai, Tarteeb Shareef pg. 469] Allahummaj 'alni min at-tawwabeen waj'alni min al-mutatahhireen (O Allah! Make me one of those who repent and make me one of those who are clean.) [at-Tirmidhi 1:78] Subhanaka Allahumma wa bi hamdika, ashhadu an la ilaha ill anta, astaghfiruka wa atubu ilaiyk. (Glory be to You, O Allah, and Praise; I bear witness that there is no god but You, I seek Your forgiveness and I repent to You.) [Sunan an-Nasa'i, 'Amal al-Yawm wal-Lailah] During wudu, you can recite this dua: Allahummaghfirli dhanbi, wa wassi’li fee daari, wa barik lee fi rizqi (O Allah! Forgive my sins, grant me expansion in my home and bless my livelihood.) [at-Tirmidhi] |
