General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab)

Dawud :: Book 41 : Hadith 4841

Narrated AbuBarzah al-Aslami:

When the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) intended to get up from the assembly he used to say in the last. Glory be to Thee. O Allah, and I begin with praise of Thee, I testify that there is no god but Thou; I ask Thy pardon, and return to Thee in repentance. The man asked: Apostle of Allah! you utter the words now which you did not do in the past? He replied: (This is an) atonement for what takes place in the assembly.
