'''Istighfār''' (Arabic:{{inlineArabic| الإستغفار}}) is to ask [[God]] to forgive one's sins. It does not merely consist in the recitation of sentences such as {{inlineArabic|"اللّهمَ إغفِرلی"}} (God! Forgive me!), rather it is a true feeling of return to God and [[repentance]] for one's wrongdoings with a determination not to commit them again. Istighfar is not restricted to ordinary, fallible people; even the [[Prophethood|prophets]] asked for divine forgiveness. [[The Prophet Muhammad (s)]] was commissioned by God to ask for divine forgiveness for himself and for other believers, as an [[intercession]] for divine mercy. | '''Istighfār''' (Arabic:{{inlineArabic| الإستغفار}}) is to ask [[God]] to forgive one's sins.
