Sahih Muslim Hadith 7004 – The Words Of Allah

English

[7004] 42 – ( … ) It was narrated that 'Abdullâh said: "A man came to the Prophet and said: '0 Messenger of Allah, I was intimate with a woman on the outskirts of Al-Madinah, and I did something with her that was less than intercourse. Here I am, judge me as you wish.' 'Umar said to him: 'Allah had concealed you, why didn't you conceal yourself?' But the Prophet did not answer. The man got up and left, then the Prophet sent a man to call him back, and he recited this Verse to him: "And perform As-Salât, at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds (i.e. small sins). That is a reminder (an advice) for the mindful (those who accept advice)".111 A man among the people said: '0 Prophet of Allah, is it only for him?' He said: 'No, it is for all the people."
