اَللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ (كَرِيْمٌ) تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي
Pronunciation
Allaahumma innaka `Afuwwun [Karimun], tu'hibbul-`afwa fa`fu `annī.
Meaning
O Allah, indeed You are Pardoning [Generous], You love pardon, so pardon me. Ayesha (RA) said, "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), should I make du'a on Lailatul Qadr?" Then he (ﷺ) taught me this du'a. This du'aa 'can be recited in the prostration of Salat on Laylat al-Qadr, before Salam, after salaam and on all other days and nights in all Salats and at normal times.

Aishah narrated: “I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, what is your view if I know when the Night of Al-Qadr is, then what should I say in it?” He said: ‘Say: “O Allah, indeed You are Pardoning, [Generous,] You love pardon, so pardon me (Allāhumma innaka `Afuwwun [Karīmun], tuḥibbul-`afwa fa`fu `annī).’” [Sahih (Albani).
