The questioner also asks: What is the authenticity of this supplication: “O Allah, Your forgiveness is more hopeful than my deeds, and Your mercy is broader than my sins. O Allah, if my sin is great in Your sight, Your pardon is greater than my sin, O Most Merciful of the merciful.”
The Shaykh:
This is a good supplication. It is not found in the hadiths or evidence, but its meaning is correct, praise be to Allah. Yes.
The questioner:

The Shaykh:
Whoever…
The questioner:
…supplicates with this after every prayer, Allah will not punish him on the Day of Resurrection for the ugliness of his deeds, nor will He open the record of his sins.
The Shaykh:
This addition has no basis, as far as I know. The original supplication is fine, but restricting it to a specific time and assigning a specific reward to it requires evidence.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
