[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked, "O Messenger of Allah, how many times can a slave be forgiven?" The Prophet remained silent, then repeated the question and remained silent again. The man asked for the third time, and then the Prophet said, "He can be forgiven seventy times in a day."

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَاللهِ كَمْ يُعْفَى عَنِ الْمَمْلُوكِ؟ قَالَ فَصَمَتَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ فَصَمَتَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ فَقَالَ يُعْفَى عَنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً
