The Garden of Guidance.
Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, said:
“So know (O Muhammad) that there is no Allah save Allah, and ask forgiveness for thy sin and for believing men and believing women. Allah knoweth (both) your place of turmoil and your place of rest.” (47:19)
“So know (O Muhammad) that there is no Allah save Allah, and ask forgiveness for thy sin and for believing men and believing women. Allah knoweth (both) your place of turmoil and your place of rest.” (47:19)

And on the authority of 'Abdullah Ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him,
that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:
"There is no remembrance greater than 'There is no god but Allah' (La ilaha illa Allah),
and no supplication greater than seeking forgiveness."
Benefit:
There are over a billion Muslims in the world,
and those among them who have passed away are countless, known to none but Allah.
If a Muslim were to seek forgiveness for his brothers and sisters,
he may well be rewarded for every single one of them.
Allah the Almighty said:
“And those who came (into the faith) after them say: Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who were before us in the faith, and place not in our hearts any rancour toward those who believe. Our Lord! Thou art Full of Pity, Merciful.” (59:10)
“And those who came (into the faith) after them say: Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who were before us in the faith, and place not in our hearts any rancour toward those who believe. Our Lord! Thou art Full of Pity, Merciful.” (59:10)

"Our Lord! Indeed, You are Kind, Merciful."
