Istighfar

Istighfar is a form of prayer and worship performed in Islam with the aim of purifying oneself from sins and seeking forgiveness from Allah. Believers aim to compensate for their mistakes by seeking refuge in Allah's mercy through istighfar. This concept allows for an inner transformation and spiritual elevation of the individual. In Sufism, istighfar expresses a desire for mercy and forgiveness in the heart. Moreover, the call to istighfar is not only an individual act but also has a social dimension. Within the community, a person enters a purification process by engaging in istighfar. Istighfar is a situation where Allah's mercy and compassion are consciously sought.
