Answer

The full narration is as follows:

Once Aishah (radiyallahu’anha) requested that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam) make du’a for her. Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam) suplicated:
“O Allah! forgive all Aishah’s sins; the past and future and what was done in secrecy or in public.”
Aishah (radiyallahu ‘anha) became extremely happy. Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam) said: “This is my du’a for my ummah in every salah.”
This is recorded in Sahih Ibn Hibban; Al Ihsan, Hadith: 7111 and Musnad Bazzar.
‘Allamah Haithami (rahimahullah) says: “The narrators are reliable.” (Majma’uz Zawaid (9/243-244)
Also see: Hayatus Sahabah. Vol. 3, pg. 339.

And Allah Ta’ala knows best.
