Allahumma Innaka afuwwun Dua

Allahumma innaka afuwwun tuhibbul afwa fa’fu annee dua اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي

What is Allahumma Innaka afuwwun tuhibbul AFWA?

Alhumdulillah! We have entered the last 10 nights of Ramadan. We should frequently recite the dua of forgiveness. Some mashaikh say that we should recite this dua atleast 100 times after astaghfar and Darood shareef in the last 10 night.

I am mentioning the hadith related to this dua

Allahumma Innaka afuwwun in Arabic

In Arabic this dua is written,

Ad

اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي

Transliteration: Allahumma innaka afuwwun tuhibbul afwa fa’fu annee

Allahumma Innaka afuwwun translation

O Allah, You are Forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me

allahumma innaka afuwwun dua hadith

allahumma innaka afuwwun dua is not an ayat of Quran. This dua is from hadith of Rasul Allah sallalahu alaihe wa sallam.

 “O Allah, You are Forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me” or “O Allah, You are Pardoning and love to pardon, so pardon me.”’Afwu means to pardon and wipe away the sin as if it never occurred.
[At-Tirmidhi (3513) and authenticat ed by An-Nawawi in Al-Adhkaar (247)]

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ كَهْمَسِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ وَافَقْتُ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ مَا أَدْعُو قَالَ ‏ “‏ تَقُولِينَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي ‏”‏ ‏.‏

It was narrated from ‘Aishah that she said:

“O Messenger of Allah, what do you think I should say in my supplication, if I come upon Laylatul-Qadr?” He said: “Say: ‘Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul-‘afwa, fa’fu ‘anni (O Allah, You are Forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me).'” Sunan Ibn Majah 3850

Allahumma innaka afuwwun dua for Laylatul Qadr

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الضُّبَعِيُّ، عَنْ كَهْمَسِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ عَلِمْتُ أَىُّ لَيْلَةٍ لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ مَا أَقُولُ فِيهَا قَالَ ‏ “‏ قُولِي اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ كَرِيمٌ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏

‘Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported:

I asked: “O Messenger of Allah! If I realize Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree), what should I supplicate in it?” He (ﷺ) replied, “You should supplicate: Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun, tuhibbul-‘afwa, fa’fu ‘anni (O Allah, You are Most Forgiving, and You love forgiveness; so forgive me).”(tirmidhi)

Repent, Condition for Tawbah

Conditions for tawbah (to seek forgiveness for major sins):
1 – Be sincere towards Allah – ensure that you are repenting purely for His sake
2 – Stop doing the sin
3 – Regret committing the sin

Read the Lailatul Qadr du’a ” Allahumma innaka afuwwun tuhibbul afwa fa’fu annee “every time you get a moment

2. Pray Isha & Fajr in congregation
3. Make the du’as from your du’a list
4. Give in charity even if it is a small amount
5. Recite the Quran, as much as possible even
   a small amount
