“Whoever performs the Fajr prayer in congregation is under Allah’s protection until evening.”

الْعَفُوّ
The One who pardons sins and erases even their trace.
Reciting a name as many times as its abjad value is a common custom; it is neither fard nor wajib. In the Dua Kitaplığı app's dhikr counter, this name comes ready with its target count.
Afuww means the One who pardons and erases the trace of sin. Ghafur covers the sin, while Afuww wipes it out completely; that is why pardon (afw) is regarded as going further than forgiveness (maghfirah). The dua of Laylat al-Qadr is made with this name.
In the Quran: Surah an-Nisa, verse 43, says: “Indeed, Allah is Ever-Pardoning, Most Forgiving.”
Maghfirah (forgiveness) is covering the sin, afw (pardon) is wiping it out completely. That is why pardon is considered a higher degree.
The dua “Allahumma innaka afuwwun tuhibbul-afwa fa'fu anni” is famous for being recited on Laylat al-Qadr; this dua mentions the name Afuww directly.
