Adam's Repentance Prayer: Arabic, Latin, Meaning, and Its Virtues

Every human being has surely made mistakes. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, "Every child of Adam sins, and the best of those who sin are those who repent" (HR At-Tirmidzi, Ibn Majah, Ahmad, al-Hakim). Therefore, repentance becomes a must for every Muslim. The repentance prayer of Prophet Adam (AS) is immortalized in Surah Al-A'raf verse 23: Rabbana zalamnaa anfusanaa wa illam taghfir lanaa wa tarhamnaa lanakoonanna minal khaasireen. Meaning: "Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves. If You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers." The virtues of repenting include: being among the successful (QS An-Nur: 31), being loved by Allah SWT (QS Al-Baqarah: 222), having evil deeds replaced with good ones (QS Al-Furqan: 70), and having sins forgiven (QS Asy-Syura: 25). https://mozaik.inilah.com/ibadah/doa-tobat-nabi-adam-arab-latin-arti-dan-keutamaannya

MashaAllah, the prayer is short but so deep in meaning. It makes me remember how often I've been unjust to myself. May Allah forgive us all.

Alhamdulillah, such a great reminder. I've actually memorized this dua now, it's light on the tongue. There are so many virtues in it, it'd be a real loss not to recite it regularly. Jazakillah khair!

I cried reading it… I often feel like I’ve messed up so much, but this verse calms me down. Allah is the Most Forgiving, so come on, let’s keep pushing for sincere repentance.
