Allah, who is the Most Gracious and the Most Compassionate is ever ready to forgive sins of any one who turns to Him with a sincere heart. He is the Most Forgiving, the One who accepts repentance and the one who pardons again and again. Seeking forgiveness is a means of purifying the self from sinful thoughts, words and deeds. Allah taught Prophet Adam words of prayer, and unlike Iblis (Satan), Prophet Adam was quick to admit his mistakes and asked for God's forgiveness, and Allah accepted his repentance and forgave him and his wife. As children of Adam, we follow the footsteps of Prophet Adam and the messengers of God to pray directly to Him alone, and to seek His forgiveness in our daily prayers. As human beings, we tend to be forgetful and we could easily fall into heedlessness and commit wrong and sinful acts knowingly or unintentionally. Recitation of istiighfar, seeking Allah's forgiveness, opens the door of mercy, sustenance and knowledge. Daily and frequent supplications of istighfar helps to purify the heart, calms the soul, removes anxiety, sadness, depression and all kinds of worldly worries from mind and body.
