Istighfar

Istighfar is a prayer and form of worship performed in Islam with the aim of being cleansed 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 a person to experience an inner transformation and to rise spiritually. In Sufism, Istighfar expresses a desire for mercy and forgiveness in the heart. Furthermore, the call to Istighfar is not only an individual act but also a form of worship with a social dimension. Within society, a person enters a process of purification by performing Istighfar. Istighfar is a situation where Allah's mercy and compassion are consciously sought.
