How do we ask to be forgiven? And do we know if we have been forgiven?..thanks
i think this is a complicated question..how exactly do u ask for forgiveness? or ne thing else? when you ask for something is there a certain way that you should place your hands or something? thx

Well what i do is, sit in a room were nobody is there. I cuff my hands and sit facing Qibla and beg Allaah to forgive me. I say my Dua'ah in english.
'oh Allaah forgive me for my wrong doings, Oh Allaah lead me to the right path......' (very long dua'ah it is i read) and then at end i say 'Amin' and i be in tears just how little heart i've got. :uhwhat
ma'assalama
im sorry i dont understand..what do u mean be in tears at how little heart..?

The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu `alaihi wa sallam, said: "The master of invocations for forgiveness is that the servant says:
'Allãhumma 'anta rabbee, lã 'ilãha 'illã 'anta, khalaqtanee, wa 'anã `abduka, wa 'anã `alã `ahdika wa wa`dika mastata`tu, 'a`outhu bika min sharri ma sana`tu, 'aboo'u laka bini`matika 'alayya, wa 'aboo'u bithambee, faghfirlee fa'innahu lã yaghfiru 'aththunooba 'illã 'anta.
O' my 'ilãh You are my Lord, there is no 'ilãh but You. You created me, and I am your bondservant, and I will stick to my covenant and promise [of faith and sincere obedience] to You, as to my ability. I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done, I acknowledge, to You, your bounties upon me, and I acknowledge, to You, my sin. Thus forgive me, for none forgives sins except You.
Whoever says this as he enters upon evening, then, dies that night, he would enter Paradise; and if one says this as he enters upon morning, then, dies that day, he would enter Paradise". [SIZE=-1][Al-Bukhari][/SIZE]
