[Machine] "It was a good thing that I had planned and intended to do, and I saw a girl who impressed me, so I married her. I will tell you that she was suspicious, so I wanted to protect her. It is narrated from Abu Majlaz, from Ibn Abbas, that he said, 'Know that Allah accepts the repentance of both of them as He accepts it from them while they are separated.' And it is narrated from Abu Hurayrah that he said, 'If their repentance does not benefit both of them, it will not benefit them while they are separated.' He recited, 'Indeed, it is Allah who accepts repentance from his servants.'"  

البيهقي:١٣٨٨٠أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ وَأَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَا ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أنبأ عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ عَطَاءٍ أنبأ سَعِيدٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمَا وَرَأْسُهُ يَقْطُرُ وَقَدْ كَانَ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّهُ صَائِمٌ فَقَالَ

إِنَّهَا كَانَتْ حَسَنَةً هَمَمْتُ بِهَا وَأَنَا قَاضِيهَا يَوْمًا آخَرَ وَرَأَيْتُ جَارِيَةً لِي فَأَعْجَبَتْنِي فَغَشِيتُهَا أَمَا إِنِّي أَزِيدُكُمْ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ بَغَتْ فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أُحَصِّنَهَا وَرُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ اعْلَمْ أَنَّ اللهَ يَقْبَلُ التَّوْبَةَ مِنْهُمَا جَمِيعًا كَمَا يَقْبَلُ مِنْهُمَا وَهُمَا مُتَفَرِّقَانِ وَرُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنْ لَمْ تَنْفَعْهُمَا تَوْبَتُهُمَا جَمِيعًا لَمْ تَنْفَعْهُمَا وَهُمَا مُتَفَرِّقَانِ قَالَ وَقَرَأَ {إِنَّ اللهَ هُوَ يَقْبَلُ التَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِ}
