[Machine] A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have caused destruction." He ﷺ said, "Woe to you, what is that?" He said, "I had intercourse with my wife during the day in Ramadan." He ﷺ said, "Free a slave." He said, "I cannot find (a slave)." He ﷺ said, "Then fast for two consecutive months." He said, "I am unable (to do that)." He ﷺ said, "Then feed sixty poor people." He said, "I cannot find (that)." Then he came to the Prophet ﷺ with a trunk containing dates, which was equivalent to fifteen saa' (a measure of weight). The Prophet ﷺ said, "Take it and give it as charity." He said, "Shall I give it to someone needier than my family? By Allah, there is no one in Madinah more in need than my family." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed until his molars became visible, then he said, "Take it and seek forgiveness from Allah and feed your family with it." Abu Al-Hasan Al-Daraqutni, who is a reliable narrator, said, "This is an authentic chain of narration." The Shaykh said, "And likewise."
