Authentic Supplication Number 13.

He (the Prophet) said to an A’rabee (15) “Say: La ‘ilaha ‘illa ‘allahu wahdahu la shareeka lahu, ‘allahu ‘akbaru kabeera, wal hamdu lil-lahi katheera, subhana ‘allahi rabbil `alameena, la hawla wa la quwwata ‘illa bil-lahil ‘azeezil-hakeemi (16).”

He said: Those are for my Lord, so what is for me? He said: “Say: ‘Allahumma ‘ighfirlee, wa ‘irhamnee, wa ‘ihdinee, wa `afinee, wa ‘urzuqnee (17).”
