English Translation
Rawh ibn Ubadah narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, from Ya'la ibn Ata, who said: I heard Amr ibn Asim ibn Sufyan ibn Abdullah say: I heard Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) say: 'The most fitting supplication—or: the most apt supplication—that a person should make: O Allah, You are my Lord. There is no god but You. You created me, and I am Your servant, and I am upon Your covenant and Your promise as much as I can. I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done. I acknowledge Your blessing upon me, and I acknowledge my sin. So forgive me, for none forgives sins except You.'
