It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A man commits a sin and then says, "O Lord! I have committed a sin, forgive me." Allah Almighty says: My servant has committed a sin and he knows that he has a Lord who forgives sins or punishes for them. I have forgiven My servant. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this three more times. In the end, Allah Almighty says: Do whatever you wish, I have forgiven you.
