O God, if the best for me with Thee lies in delaying the taking to task for my sake of him who has wronged me and in refraining from vengeance toward him until the Day of Decision and the Gathering of Disputants, then bless Muhammad and his Household, strengthen me from Thee with true intention and lasting patience, give me refuge from evil desire and the impatience of the greedy, and form in my heart the image of Thy reward which Thou hast stored away for me and the repayment and punishment which Thou has prepared for my disputant! Make this a cause of my contentment with what Thou hast decreed and my trust in what Thou hast chosen! Amen, Lord of the worlds! Thou art of bounty abounding and Thou art powerful over everything. Imam Sajjad (as) Sahifa-e-Sajjadiyah

Forgiveness of Sins



عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَينِ )ع) قَالَ: جَاءَ رُجُلٌ إِلـى النَّبِيِّ )ص) فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللٌّهِ مَا مِنْ عَمَلٍ قَبِيحٍ إِلاَّ قَدْ عَمِلْتُهُ فَهَلْ لِي مِنْ تَوْبَةِ؟  فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللٌّهُ )ص) فَهَلْ مِنْ وَالِدَيكْ أَحَدٌ حَيٌّ؟ قَالَ أَبِي. قَالَ فَاذْهَبْ فَبِرْهُ.  قَالَ فَلَمَّا وَلَّى قَالَ رَسُولُ اللٌّهُ )ص): لَوْ كَانَتْ أُمُّهُ.‏

Imam Zainul `Abidin (peace be upon him) relates: “Once a person approached the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his family) and said: ‘O’ Prophet of Allah!  I have committed every known evil act.  Is there a chance that I may be forgiven?’  The Messenger of Allah asked him: ‘Are any of your parents still alive?’ The man replied: ‘My father.’  He said to him: ‘Go and be good and kind to him.’ When he left, the Messenger of Allah muttered: ‘If only his mother had been alive.’”
