“I am sorry for the lives that I’ve taken, for the suffering that I’ve caused you, and the damage that I’ve done. I pray to Allah to bestow his mercy on you. I pray for your relief, for your healing, for your well-being, for your health. I ask Allah for mercy for me and for my brother. I am guilty of [the bombings], along with my brother, if there is any lingering doubt.”
