1345. It was narrated from 'Aîshah that when the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sat in a gathering or prayed, he said some words, and 'Aîshah asked him about those words. He said: "If he has spoken some good words (and he says this statement of remembrance), it will be a seal for them to preserve them until the Day of Resurrection, and if he has said something other than that, it (these words) will be an expiation for him: 'Subhânak Allâhumma wa
bi hamdika, astaghfiruka wa atûbu ilayk (Glory and praise be to You, O Allâh, I seek Your forgiveness and I repent to You).” (Hasan)

Commentary
1. This supplication is called the atonement of assembly. It should, therefore, be recited after every assembly or gathering.
2. “Shall become a seal” means they will make the reward of these good words long-abiding, and shall be a guarantee of their acceptance (by Allâh), and shall not allow them to go waste.
