Context
We relate in the Ṣaḥīḥ of Muslim that ‘Alī
narrated that when the Messenger of Allah
performed ṣalāh, the last thing he would say between the tashahhud and the salutation was: “O Allah, forgive me for what I have done in the past and for what I have delayed, for what I have done in secret and for what I have done in public, for what I have squandered and for that which You know better than I. You are the One Who brings forward and the One Who puts behind, and there is no god but You.” [4].
