Du'aa at the time of Iftaar

Sayyidunā `Abdullāh ibn `Amr (Radiyallāhu Ta’ālā `anhu) narrates
that I heard Nabi (Sallallāhu `alayhi wassalam) saying: A fasting
person has an accepted du`ā (prayer) at the time of iftār (time
when he breaks his fast). It was the habit of Sayyidunā `Abdullāh
ibn `Amr (Radiyallāhu Ta’ālā `anhu) to call his wife and children
at the time of iftār and make du`ā. 
Ibn Mulaykah (Rahimahullāh Ta’ālā) mentions that I heard
Sayyidunā `Abdullāh ibn `Amr (Radiyallāhu Ta’ālā `anhu) 
making the following du`ā when he broke his fast:
اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ الْتِيْ وَسِعَتْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِيَ 
Allahumma inni As-aluka Bi-Rahmati kallati Wasi`at 
Kulla Shai’in An Taghfirlee
O Allāh! I ask You through Your all encompassing
mercy to forgive me
(Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr al-Baqarah 186 1/509)
