[Machine] A man had relations with a woman without engaging in indecency. He then went to Umar, seeking counsel. Umar rebuked him, and then he went to Abu Bakr, who also admonished him. Finally, he went to the Prophet ﷺ , and I do not know if the Prophet rebuked him or not. He said, "Then Allah revealed, 'Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds.'"
The man asked, "Is this verse for me, O Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet replied, "It is for anyone who follows it from my nation."
أَصَابَ رَجُلٌ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ شَيْئًا دُونَ الْفَاحِشَةِ فَأَتَى عُمَرَ ؓ فَعَظُمَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَتَى أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ فَعَظُمَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَلَا أَدْرِي أَعَظُمَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْ لَا قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} [هود 114] فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَلِي هَذِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ هِيَ لِمَنْ أَخَذَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي
