Seeking forgiveness

Oneness, Uniqueness of Allah (Tawheed)

Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 7477

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي إِنْ شِئْتَ، ارْحَمْنِي إِنْ شِئْتَ، ارْزُقْنِي إِنْ شِئْتَ، وَلْيَعْزِمْ مَسْأَلَتَهُ، إِنَّهُ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَاءُ، لاَ مُكْرِهَ لَهُ

Allāhumma āghfir lī in shiʾta, ārḥamnī in shiʾta, ārzuqnī in shiʾta, walyaʿzim masʾalatah, innah yafʿalu mā yashāʾu, lā mukriha lah

The full narration

Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "None of you should say: 'O Allah! Forgive me if You wish,' or 'Bestow Your Mercy on me if You wish,' or 'Provide me with means of subsistence if You wish,' but he should be firm in his request, for Allah does what He will and nobody can force Him (to do anything)
