اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي ظُلْمًا كَثِيرًا، وَلَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ، فَاغْفِرْ لِي مَغْفِرَةً مِنْ عِنْدِكَ، وَارْحَمْنِي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ.
"Allaahumma innee dhalamtu nafsee dhulman katheeran, wa laa yaghfirudh-dhunooba illaa Anta, faghfir lee maghfiratam-min 'indika warhamnee innaka Antal-Ghafoorur-Raheem."
Ewe Mwenyezi Mungu, hakika mimi nimeidhulumu nafsi yangu dhuluma kubwa mno, na hakuna anayesamehe madhambi ila Wewe; basi nighufirie msamaha unaotoka Kwako na unirehemu; hakika Wewe ndiye Mwingi wa maghfirah, Mwenye kurehemu.
O Allah, I have wronged myself greatly, and none forgives sins except You. So grant me forgiveness from Yourself and have mercy upon me. Indeed, You are the Forgiving, the Merciful.
Abu Bakr As-Siddiq alimuomba Mtume amfundishe dua bora ya kuomba ndani ya swala yake.
