Sahih Muslim 598a-b (Book 5, Hadith 190) #8504
Supplication of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) Between Takbir and Recitation

SUMMARY: This hadith explains the supplication that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) used to recite between the takbir and recitation of the Quran.

Abu Huraira reported that Allah's Messenger used to observe, silence for a short while between the takbir (at the time of opening the prayer) and the recitation of the Qur'an. I said to him: Messenger of Allah, for whom I would give my father and mother in ransom, what do you recite during your period of silence between the takbir and the recitation? He said: I say (these words):" O Allah, remove my sins from me as Thou hast removed the East from the West. O Allah purify me from sins as a white garment is purified from filth. O Allah! wash away my sins with snow, water, and ice".

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a supplication that Prophet Muhammad used to recite between the takbir and reciting of the Quran. The takbir is an Islamic phrase meaning “God is great”, which Muslims say when they begin their prayer. After saying this phrase, Prophet Muhammad would pause for a short while before beginning his recitation of the Quran. During this period, he would recite a special supplication asking Allah to forgive him for his sins and purify him from them as if they were washed away with snow, water, or ice. This hadith teaches us that we should always ask Allah for forgiveness in our prayers and strive to be pure in our hearts so we can be closer to Him.
