A pray that open close Doors

The dua Rabbi Inni Zalamtu Nafsi Faghfirli is a popular dua that mentioned in the Quran, specifically in Surah Qasas ayah 16. This was one of the dua’s recited by Prophet Musa (AS) asking for Allah’s forgiveness.

Before Prophet Musa revelation on the mount, he was adopted by the Pharoah. One day when he was travelling the city he came across two men in a scuffle. The Quran mentions this in ayah 15,

“And he entered the city at a time of inattention by its people and found therein two men fighting: one from his faction and one from among his enemy. And the one from his faction called for help to him against the one from his enemy, so Moses struck him and [unintentionally] killed him. [Moses] said, “This is from the work of Satan. Indeed, he is a manifest, misleading enemy.”

Musa (AS) was unaware of his strength when he struck the man and had accidentally killed him. Immediately afterwards he realized that shaitan had a hold on him and he became aware of the mistake he just committed. It is here where he sought the repentance of Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala and recited the rabbi inni zalamtu dua.
