Wudu, masjid and salah

Dua before salam

In the final sitting, after at-Tahiyyat and Durood Ibrahim, before you end the salah.

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي ظُلْمًا كَثِيرًا، وَلاَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، فَاغْفِرْ لِي مَغْفِرَةً مِنْ عِنْدِكَ، وَارْحَمْنِي، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ

Allāhumma innī ẓalamtu nafsī ẓulman kathīrā, wa lā yaghfirudh-dhunūba illā ant, faghfir lī maghfiratan min 'indik, warḥamnī innaka antal-ghafūrur-raḥīm

O Allah, I have wronged myself greatly, and none forgives sins but You. So forgive me with forgiveness from You, and have mercy on me. You are the Forgiving, the Merciful.

Source: Sahih al-Bukhari 6326
