Please, Abu Salih from Dammam.

May Allah give you a good evening.

Another questioner:
And Allah and good, all together.

The presenter:
May Allah keep you safe, please go ahead. Come on.

Another questioner:
O honorable one, I ask the Shaykh about, for example, seeking forgiveness for me and my parents. I, I often say, “I seek Allah’s forgiveness,” and I like to say it for me and my parents and for all the Muslims, both men and women. Is there any disagreement or issue with this? May Allah reward you with good. The question is, I prayed the Duha prayer, I prayed the Duha, and during the first two rak’ahs…

The questioner:
…did you see how it was? I didn’t remember from the second rak’ah until after I had started reciting al-Fatihah. So should I sit, or should I complete the bowing despite the fact that I completed the second rak’ah and prostrated for forgetfulness? May Allah reward you with good and reward you.

The presenter:
Thank you.

The questioner:
May Allah preserve you.

The presenter:
He says that in his seeking of forgiveness, he says, “I seek Allah’s forgiveness for me, for my parents, and for the Muslims,” Honorable Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
This is a good thing. Seek forgiveness for your sin and for the believing men and women. Yes.
