قال رب إني ظلمت نفسي فاغفر لي فغفر له إنه هو الغفور الرحيم
He said, "My Lord! Indeed, I [I] have wronged my soul, so forgive [for] me." Then He forgave [for] him. Indeed He, He (is) the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
Al-Ghafur (The Oft-Forgiving)—unified here with Al-Ghaffar, Ghafir adh-Dhanb, and Dhul-Maghfirah—signifies Allah’s boundless forgiveness that veils faults and pardons sins time after time. In the Quran, this Divine Name appears 100 times across 100 verses in 43 surahs, from Quran 2:173 (Surah Al-Baqarah) to Quran 85:14 (Surah Al-Buruj).
Reflection: Turning to Al-Ghafur keeps the heart free from despair after mistakes and teaches us to forgive and overlook the shortcomings of people.
