وعن أبى برزة رضى الله عنه قال‏:‏ كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول بآخرة إذا أراد أن يقوم من المجلس‏:‏ ‏"‏سبحانك الله وبحمدك، أشهد أن لا إله إلا أنت، أستغفرك وأتوب إليك‏"‏ فقال رجل‏:‏ يا رسول الله، إنك لتقول قولاً ما كنت تقوله فيما مضى‏؟‏ قال‏:‏ ‏"‏ذلك كفارة لما يكون في المجلس‏. ‏‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو داود‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏‏(‏‏(‏ورواه الحاكم أبو عبيد الله في ‏ ‏المستدرك‏ ‏ من رواية عائشة رضى الله عنها وقال‏:‏ صحيح بإسناد‏)‏‏)‏‏‏
Abu Barzah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Towards the end of his life, Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would supplicate before leaving an assembly thus: "Subhanaka Allahumma wa bihamdika, ash-hadu an la ilaha illa Anta, astaghfiruka wa atubu ilaika (O Allah, You are free from every imperfection; all praise is for You. I testify that there is no true god except You, I ask Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance).'' A man once said to him: "O Messenger of Allah! You have spoken such words as you have never uttered before.'' He said, "It is an expiation of that which goes on in the assembly.'' .
