2. Repentance of Hazrat Adam (a.s.) – Surah Baqarah (2): Verse 37

فَتَلَقَّىٰ آدَمُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ كَلِمَاتٍ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ 

“Then Adam received (some) words from his Lord, so He turned to him mercifully; surely He is Oft-returning (to mercy), the Merciful.”

وَ هِيَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ «يَا رَبِّ أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ وَ فَاطِمَةَ وَ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ إِلَّا تُبْتَ عَلَيَّ»

And these were the words – O my Lord! I ask you for the sake of Mohammed (s.a.w.a.), Ali (a.s.), Janabe Fatima (s.a.), Hasan (a.s.) and Husain (a.s.) except that you turn to me.1
