Dua at the end of a gathering – 1

1. At the end of a gathering, one should recite the following dua:

 سُبْحَانَكَ اللّٰهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَّا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوْبُ إِلَيْكَ

Glory be to You, O Allah Ta‘ala, with all Your praise! I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except You, I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance.

عن أبي برزة الأسلمي، قال: كان رسول الله-صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول بأخرة إذا أراد أن يقوم من المجلس: سبحانك اللهم وبحمدك، أشهد أن لا إله إلا أنت، أستغفرك وأتوب إليك فقال رجل: يا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إنك لتقول قولا ما كنت تقوله فيما مضى، فقال: كفارة لما يكون في المجلس (سنن أبي داود، الرقم: 4861)

Hazrat Abu Barzah (radhiyallahu anhu) reports that it was the habit of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) to recite the following dua at the end of a gathering whenever he intended to stand up to leave the gathering. One of the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu anhum) enquired, “O Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam), (we notice that) you recite a dua at the end of the gathering which you would not recite previously.”  Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) replied, “I recite this dua at the end of a gathering so that it may serve as an atonement for that (futile speech, etc.) which had occurred during the gathering.”

 سُبْحَانَكَ اللّٰهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَّا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوْبُ إِلَيْكَ
