Listen to the story on the power of Istighfar below. (Please like the video and subscribe to the Youtube channel if you like to get more such content.)
This story about “Istighfar” is from the life of Imam Ahmed Bin Hanbal, who is considered as a renowned scholar of Islam and a famous theologian. Imam Ahmed is also considered to be the founder of the Hanbali school of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) and is one of the most celebrated Sunni theologians, often referred to as the “Sheikh ul-Islam” or the “Imam of Ahl al-Sunnah.”
During his old age, while Imam Ahmed was travelling he stopped by a town. After the prayers, he wanted to stay for the night in the masjid yard because he didn’t know anyone in the town. Owing to his humility, he hadn’t introduced himself to anyone thinking that if he did, he would be welcomed by many people.
Failing to recognize Ahmed bin Hanbal, the caretaker of the mosque refused to let him stay in the mosque. As Imam Ahmed was quite old, the caretaker had to drag him out of the mosque. On seeing this, a baker from a nearby place felt pity for this man (Imam Ahmed) and offered to be the host to him for the night. During his stay with the baker, Imam Ahmed observed that the baker would constantly recite Istighfar (seek forgiveness from Allah). Imam Ahmed asked the baker if the constant practice of saying Istighfar had any effect on him. The baker responded by telling Imam Ahmed that Allah had accepted all of his duas (supplications), except one. When he asked him what dua was it that hadn’t been accepted, the baker replied that he had been asking Allah to provide him the privilege to meet the famous scholar Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal.

On this, Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal said that Allah had not only listened to his dua but had dragged him onto his (the baker’s) doorsteps. [Summarized from Al Jumuah magazine, vol 19, issue 7]
This story is a reminder of the power of saying Istighfar (seeking forgiveness) frequently. Let’s remember that the prophet used to say Istighfar frequently during the day.
Tafseer Al-Qurtubi states:
A man complained to Al-Hasan about a drought, and he said to him: “Pray to Allah for forgiveness.”
Another man complained to him of poverty and he said to him: “Pray to Allah to forgive you.”
Another man said to him: “Pray to Allah to bless me with a child.” He said: “Pray to Allah for forgiveness.”
Another complained to him that his garden was dry. He said to him: “Pray to Allah for forgiveness.”
He was asked about it and he said: “This is not my personal opinion, for Allah says in Surah Nooh (interpretation of the meaning): ‘Ask forgiveness from your Lord, verily, He is Oft Forgiving; He will send rain to you in abundance. And give you increase in wealth and children, and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers.” Tafseer Al-Qurtubi (18/301-302)
The following are the verses of Surah Nuh from the Noble Quran.
And said, ‘Ask forgiveness of your Lord. Indeed, He is ever a Perpetual Forgiver.
He will send [rain from] the sky upon you in [continuing] showers
And give you increase in wealth and children and provide for you gardens and provide for you rivers.
One of the narrators of a Hadith was asked about the manner in which forgiveness is to be sought, to which he answered: “The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) used to say: ‘Astaghfirullah! Astaghfirullah! (I beseech Allah for forgiveness, I beseech Allah for forgiveness)’.” [Sahih Muslim].

Allah O Akbar! An amazing story. This website has great soul inspiring articles that are easy to understand and accurate, God bless you for your work, its great!
I got goose bumps reading this. It just shows you Allah gives what you need when you need it and I needed this story. All Praise Due To Allah.
It goes to show how benevolent Allah swt is to His slaves. You just say these few words and He grants you millions of your du’a. Glory be to Him, d Most High.
Alhamdolillah! What a story, and what a lot it has to teach – the power of Istighfar; the Benevolence of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) and the humility of Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal. It strenthens your Eeman; it turns you towards Allah; and it shows you how insignificant are people’s reactions to us though we foolishly attach undue importance to them.
Allahuakbar, isighfar is supposed to clean your heart and mind, and we need to do it on daily basis. Repentance is good for the mind, soul and body.
AA,
This is truly a moving story it has really touched me and I have felt it. Jazakallah for sharing this with me. May Allah bless your site, you and your causes. Ameen. Please remember me in your dua’s.
Salaam
SUBHANALLAH..I CANNOT STOP CRYING…SUBHANALLAH SO TOUCHING STORY.
I FEEL THE SAME SISTER
MAY ALLAH SWT HAVE MERCY AND US AND FORGIVE US.
ALL MY LOVE SIHAM
Allah helps his slaves through ways unknowns to us and constant touba is very important tool to associate ourselves with Him.
Allah [swt] helps His slaves through ways unknown to us and seeking forgiveness constantly from Him is best tool available with us to associate ourselves with His Rehmat.
Allah askd Holy prophet S.A.W. to seek for forgiveness(even though he was forgiven any future acts if there was any S.A.W) bt stl he (S.A.W) did seek Allah’s forgivnes. It is a lesson wat we shld adhere to n constantly. May Allah forgiv our sins, amiin.
Assalaamualaikum,
A moving story indeed! But how many of us would react the way Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal did to the treatment he got! Truly spiritual people are just not affected by how people treat them. We should learn to focus on Allah and ignore the pettiness of people.
JazakAllah for bringing such inspiring stories to your readers.
Al Humdillilah! What a wonderful hadith
Subhannallah Wabihamdi

Mashallah. We must always seek forgiveness from Allah because of the many things we do which we might not have intended to be bad or negative. I try to say Istagfir as many times as I can in a day. Istagfir and Alhamduliah the two go hand in hand.
“Istagfir and Alhamduliah the two go hand in hand.” best practice 🙂

Brought tears to my eyes and solace to my soul.

MAY ALLAH GUIDE US ALL AND ALSO GIVE US THE ABILITY TO ASK FOR HIS FORGIVENESS AT LEAST BEFORE GOING TO BED BECAUSE, “ONE IS NOT SURE WHETHER HE/SHE WILL BE ABLE TO SEE THE LIGHT OF THE NEXT DAY”. SO WHY NOT ASK FOR ALLAH’S FORGIVENESS & NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY…AMEEN.

Praise be to AllAH and may Allah shower peace n blessing to our beloved prophet Muhammad.
Thank you for your wonderful insights. I totally agree with the power of asking forgiveness in our lives.
assalamoaleikum
Thanks for the great article on istghfar. We should bear in mind that this life on earth is very short. Istighfar is one the many ways to help us realize our faults and sins and will help us on the day of judgement.
Thanks a thousand times for this precious article.
It is very humbling to know that Rasulullah saw who was guaranteed to go to heaven would also recite astaghfirullah regularly, whereas, myself who often even forget the wrongdoings that I have done, do not practise it regularly. I hope that Allah would forgive all of our sins and show us the way to become truly his humble servant. Amin.
Alhamdulillah….. All praise be to Allah alone. Will practice ishtaghfar daily from today. Thanks for this wonderful article. Keep up the good work!!
Assalamualaykum thanks for the artice and may Allah forgive us

Assalam alaykum warahmatu llah wabarakatuh, i ask allah to forgive us our sins firstly, but lets me remind you my fellow muslim that, not only reciting a word, will make you being forgiven by the allah, but we have to bear in our mind that the eeman to what we say nis so important.
May Allah continue to support you in this noble cause. Alhamdulillah!Astaghfirullah!

This story is very important to we the muslim. If the Prophet(saw) use say istighfar freguently during the day while his past sins and sins to be commited are all forgiven by ALLAH. So I think we should say more istighfar than the prophet because we are always committing sins day and Night. May ALLAH forgive us our sins. Ameen.

May Allah Bless You for sharing this wonderful story with the importance of istighfar.
Asalamu alaykum wa rahmatallahu wa barakatu,
To begin with, jazakallahu kheiran for an enlightening article. It goes to show how our day to day commitments can easily over- ride the forgiveness we desperately need to seek from Allah (swt)almighty. We are in need of Allah’s forgiveness and we must truly reflect on Istighfar in our hearts and learn to practice Istighfar on a daily basis. Allah (swt) has blessed us with another reward for the day of judgment for Allah knows best. Wa Alhumdullihah
Assalamualeykum warahaamatullahi wabarakaatuhu! All praise be to Allah alone. I Will practice ishtaghfar daily from today. Thanks for this wonderful article. Keep up the good works and may Allah accept your good deeds and forgive your evil deeds! See you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Asalamu alaikum,
This is indeed a touching story. All i got from this is we should keep remembering ALLAH all the time and ask for forgiveness and his mercy. Inshah Allah will do this from today. Thanks for this article.
Jazakallahu khairun.
Allhakbar! Did not know Istighfar was this powerful. God willing, I will increase in the Act and pray that Allaah make it easy for me. Ameen.
Thank you for sharing this most uplifting article and may we learn from the lessons that are exhibited by the life of Imam Ahmed Bin Hanbal.
In these often troubling and difficult times may we take from his example to try our utmost to lead our best lives and to practice “Istighfar” in our dealings with others.
inshaallah your tips are of great help to me and my family

JAZAKALLAH BROTHERS AND SISTERS.
Very nice ,heart touching Stories,May God give us forgiveness and teach us a right way,and Grant his all blessing to the publisher of this great story.Ameen
Faith, Tawqwa and Hilimi are fundamental to understanding our responsibility to ALLAH and being at peace with oneself. May ALLAH teach us to seek enough forgiveness. Salam alaekum
Assalamu alaikum. I have to confess that things like istigfar, takbir, zikr etc are common knowledge to us average muslims but shaitaan being always very active among us make us reluctant to do such good deeds or outrightly forget about them completely. May Allah (SWT) strenthen our resolve for doing good deeds and put us not among those that are forgetfull. Ameen.
i m really moved by this story. as i m a new learner, so i want to learn more and more…. i will surely practice it…and try to make my emaan strong…
Assalamoualaikum Warahmatullah Wabarakatuhu
In fact, there is no doubt Istighfar has a great power as you said, in fact we must read it with heart so Allah the Almighty would accept our supplications. May Allah bless all of us and shower his blessing upon us. Ramadhan Mubarak brothers and sisters
It shows that our sins blocks our blessings from Allah. For us to be spiritually clean/pure so as to be close to Him, we need his forgiveness all the time. Jazakallahu Khairan
SupannAllah, this story has moved me to tears. Jazaka Allahu kyrum for this beautiful piece. I pray Allah will remove the hardship from all the believer’s and give us all tawfeek in this life and the next, Aameen
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful story.
Allah forgive all of us and bless all of us.
Astaghfirullah!
There is a lump in my throat, on hearing this story I wish that everyone knows how Allah will forgive them, let us say Astaghfirullah, when we get angry especially – how much trouble will we stay out of? Allah is truly the greatest that He has given us this option out of sin. No other belief structure offers this.
We are lucky to have Islam!
Thank you so so much for the post Allah barik.
Thank you for such a lovely post.
subhan ALLAH,,,,beautiful story. Verily 1 needs to pray forgiveness from ALLAHswt regularly…

Jzakallahukhair
Nyc 1 masha Allah! May Allah SWT forgive us ol.
Masha Allah, this really reassuring….Allah certainly listens to us even when know not. Astagfirullah Azeem!
I have been doing just about everything. But my condition keeps on worsening. I want to kill myself because of the pain I have to go through. I shall now embark on saying Istighfar in abundance. Perhaps that will cure my disease.
Reading asthagfirAllah gives you a lot of peace and keeps you away from worry and you pray for anything it is granted to you by any means. I have a short story to narrate. I was rich and doing well in all fronts of my life. I pray all 5 times, fast and do all the duties of a Muslim. But I was extremely proud on myself, my achievements, my looks and my status. A day came in my life all these things vanished, and on top of it I got sick with diabetics, hypertension and finally my kidneys have failed and I am on dialysis. But one thing. I have never fallen apart from the path of Islam. I don’t have anything today but the greatest wealth I still have is ASTHGFIRALLAH AND DAROOD ON PHROPHET MOHAMMED (SALLAH HU ALLE HEE WA SALLAM). This keeps me the most comfortable in all my worries. I go through painful process in my medical treatment for dialysis, I keep reading this two Zeekkir and Allah gives me a lot of peace. And I am slowly regaining everything that I had lost. My dear brothers and sister please read this and see the magic happening in your life.
Subhan Allah ….very inspiring 🙂
Alhamdulillah for reading this beautiful piece,may Allah swt make it easy for us to say astagfurllah all the time,Amin.
