عن حُذَيْفَةَ رضي الله عنه:
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ: «رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي، رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي».

Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to say between the two prostrations: "Rabbi ighfir li, rabbi ighfir li" (My Lord, forgive me; my Lord, forgive me).
[Authentic] - [Narrated by Abu Dāwūd, An-Nasā’i, Ibn Mājah, and Ahmad] - [Sunan Ibn Mājah - 897]
When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sat between the two prostrations, he would say: My Lord, forgive me; my Lord, forgive me, repeatedly.
"My Lord, forgive me" means: The servant asks his Lord to eliminate his sins and conceal his faults.
