Just loved this one:
#ImSorry
To my Lord: I'm sorry for the times I return to the sins that I promised I would never return to, and for forgetting that your mercy is vast enough to accept me regardless of my own shortcomings.
To my parents: I'm sorry when I fail to live up to the expectations you've set for me, and reflect the outstanding upbringing I had.
To my family: I'm sorry for the times I left my good character at the door and only entered the home with my complaints and criticism forgetting that you are most entitled to the goodness I have to offer.
To those who follow me: I'm sorry for the times I've allowed my emotion to get the best of me and said something offensive or disrespectful.
To those who have met me in person: I'm sorry if you walked up to me at a conference or masjid and I couldn't give you my full attention. My intention was never to cause you to feel slighted.
To the unmosqued: I'm sorry for the critical words or glances I gave you that turned you away from what's meant to be the most welcoming place on earth.
To the less fortunate: I'm sorry for not fully recognizing what Allah has blessed me with and the rights that you have upon me as well.
To the oppressed of (insert country): I'm sorry for reducing your cause to a status or tweet, forgetting you in my supplications at times, and waiting for the media to cover you to feel any sympathy towards you.
To everyone: Im sorry for the times I should've said sorry, but my arrogance prevented me from doing so.

I'm very sorry if I offended any of you in any way. Please forgive me.
Don't forget to watch the video on the side :)
