English translation
6323. Narrated Shā'īd bin Aus: The Prophet ﷺ said, "The most superior way of asking for forgiveness from Allāh is: 'Allāhumma Anta Rabbi, lā ilāha illā Anta, khalaqtani wa ana 'abā'ika, wa ana 'alā 'ahdika wa wa dika māṣāṭa'tu. Abū'u laka bini'matika wa abū'u laka biḍhanbi faghfirlī, fainnahū lā yaḡfirudh-dhunūba illā Anta.'" All what has been revealed in Allāh's Book [the Qur'ān] as regard the "Sifāt". Qualities of Allāh عز وجل the Most High like His Face, Eyes, Hands, Shins, (Legs), His coming, His Istawa (rising) over His Throne and His other Qualities or all that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ qualified Him in the true authentic Prophet's Ahadīth (narrations) as regards His Qualities like [Nuzul], His Descent or His laughing and others, the religious scholars of the Qur'ān and the Sunna believe in these qualities of Allāh and they confirm that these are really His Qualities, without Ta'wil (interpreting their meanings into different things) or Tashbih (giving resemblance or similarity to any of the creatures) or Ta'til (i.e., completely ignoring or denying them, i.e., there is no Face, or Eyes, or Hands, or Shins for Allāh). These Qualities befit or suit only Allāh Alone, and He does not resemble any of (His) creatures. As Allāh's Statement (in the Qur'ān): (1) "There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer". (V.42:11) (2) "There is none comparable unto Him." (V.112:4) A'ūdhu bika min sharri mā šana'tu.(1) If somebody recites this invocation during the night, and if he should die then, he will enter Paradise (or he will be from the people of Paradise), and if he recites it in the morning, and if he should die on the same day, he will have the same fate (i.e., will enter Paradise)."
