Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves, and if You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers.

This powerful supplication is for any Muslim who realizes they have committed the grave sin of mocking, belittling, or disrespecting Allah's verses, His messengers, or His clear religious teachings. It's especially poignant when the mockery stems from ignorance or heedlessness, and the individual now feels deep regret and a desire to sincerely turn back to Allah.

Virtues & Benefits
This verse is the very supplication of Adam and Eve (peace be upon them) after they were tempted by Shaytan and ate from the forbidden tree. Their sincere repentance and this specific dua were accepted by Allah, showcasing its immense power. Reciting it with genuine regret: - Opens the door to Allah's forgiveness for even grave sins. - Acknowledges our subservience and reliance on Allah's mercy. - Demonstrates humility and the recognition that true loss is in being deprived of Allah's pleasure. - Reminds us that turning back to Allah is always an option, no matter the mistake.
