اللهم انك عفو تحب العفو فاعف عنّي Allāhumma innāka ʿafūwwun tuḥibbul ʿafwa fa-ʿfu ʿannī Oh Allah, You are the Most Forgiving, and You love forgiveness, so forgive me

Narrated by Ubādah ibn aṣ-Ṣāmit رضي الله عنه that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever gets up at night and says: 'Lā ilāha illAllāhu, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, wa huwa ʿalā kulli shaiʾin qadīr. Alḥamdulillāhi wa-SubḥānAllāhi wa-Lā ʾilāha ʾillā llāhu w-Allāhu Akbar wa-Lā ḥawla wa-lā quwwata ʾillā bi-llāh.' لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له، له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيء قدير الحمد لله وسبحان الله ولا اله الا الله والله اكبر ولا حول ولاقوة إلا بالله (None has the right to be worshipped but Allāh. He is the Only One and has no partners. For Him is the Kingdom and all the praises are due for Him. He is Omnipotent. Praise be to Allāh and Glory be to Allāh, and There is no God but Allāh, and Allāh is Greatest And there is neither Might nor Power Except with Allāh). And then says: Allāhumma-ġfirlī اللهم اغفر لي (O Allāh! Forgive me). Or invokes (Allāh), he will be responded to, and if he performs ablution (and prays), his prayer will be accepted." [Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 1154]

At least 400 people have been killed and 250 injured after Pakistan launched an airstrike on a drug rehabilitation hospital in Kabul, Afghanistan. Afghan authourties say the Pakistani military regime violated Afghanistan’s airspace and targeted a drug rehabilitation, resulting in the death and injury of addicts who were undergoing treatment. Pakistan dismissed the claim as “false and aimed at misleading public opinion”, saying it only targeted military installations in Kabul.

Joe Kent, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, and a long standing supporter of US President Donald Trump publicly posted his resignation letter saying: “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation”. He then stated that the war was started due to “pressure Israel and it’s powerful American lobby.”
