A man kissed a woman and then came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him of that, so this Divine Inspiration was revealed to the Prophet ﷺ 'And offer Prayers perfectly at the two ends of the day, and in some hours of the night; (i.e. (five) compulsory prayers). Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds (small sins) That is a reminder for the mindful.' (11.114) The man said, Is this instruction for me only?' The Prophet ﷺ said, "It is for all those of my followers who encounter a similar situation."

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَأُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيْهِ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} قَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَلِيَ هَذِهِ قَالَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي

A man kissed a woman (unlawfully) and then went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him. Allah revealed: And offer prayers perfectly At the two ends of the day And in some hours of the night (i.e. the five compulsory prayers). Verily! good deeds remove (annul) the evil deeds (small sins) (11.114). The man asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ, "Is it for me?" He said, "It is for all my followers."

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {أَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَلِي هَذَا قَالَ: «لِجَمِيعِ أُمَّتِي كُلِّهِمْ۔»

Ibn Mas'ud reported that a person came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him that he had kissed a woman or touched her with his hand or did something like this. He inquired of him about its expiation. It was (on this occasion) that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed this verse (as mentioned above).

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ إِمَّا قُبْلَةً أَوْ مَسًّا بِيَدٍ أَوْ شَيْئًا كَأَنَّهُ يَسْأَلُ عَنْ كَفَّارَتِهَا قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ يَزِيدَ

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Sulaiman Taimi with the same chain of transmitters that a person had taken liberty with a woman less than fomication. He came to 'Umar b. Khattab and he took it to be a serious offence. Then he came to Abu Bakr and he also took it to be a serious offence. Then he came the Allahs Apostle ﷺ and he made a mention of this to him. The rest of the hadith is the same.

أَصَابَ رَجُلٌ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ شَيْئًا دُونَ الْفَاحِشَةِ فَأَتَى عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ فَعَظَّمَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَتَى أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَعَظَّمَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ يَزِيدَ وَالْمُعْتَمِرِ

Messenger of Allah, I sported with a woman in the outskirts of Medina, and I have committed an offence short of fornication. Here I am (before you), kindly deliver verdict about me which you deem fit. Unar said: Allah concealed your fault. You had better conceal it yourself also. Allah's Apostle ﷺ, however, gave no reply to him. The man stood up and went away and Allah's Apostle ﷺ sent a person after him to call him and be recited this verse:" And observe prayer at the ends of the day and in the first hours of the night. Surely, good deeds take away evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful" (xi. 115). A person amongst the people said: Allah's Apostle, does it concern this marn only? Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: No, but the people at large.

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي عَالَجْتُ امْرَأَةً فِي أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَإِنِّي أَصَبْتُ مِنْهَا مَا دُونَ أَنْ أَمَسَّهَا فَأَنَا هَذَا فَاقْضِ فِيَّ مَا شِئْتَ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ لَقَدْ سَتَرَكَ اللَّهُ لَوْ سَتَرْتَ نَفْسَكَ قَالَ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ شَيْئًا فَقَامَ الرَّجُلُ فَانْطَلَقَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَجُلاً دَعَاهُ وَتَلاَ عَلَيْهِ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ { أَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ هَذَا لَهُ خَاصَّةً قَالَ بَلْ لِلنَّاسِ كَافَّةً

Mu'adh said: Messenger of Allah, does it concern this particular case or to all of us? And he (the Holy Prophet) said: Of course, to all of you.

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ أَبِي الأَحْوَصِ وَقَالَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا لِهَذَا خَاصَّةً أَوْ لَنَا عَامَّةً قَالَ بَلْ لَكُمْ عَامَّةً

A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "I fondled a woman who lives on the outskirts of Madinah, and I did with her what is less than intercourse, and here I am, so judge in my case as you will." So ʿUmar said to him: "Allah covered ˹your sins˺, so you should have ˹kept them˺ covered yourself." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not give him any reply.
The man left but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a man after him to call him back. He recited to him: "And perform Salāh, at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful (Hūd 11:114)" until the end of the āyah. A man among the people said: "Is this specific for him?" He ﷺ said: 'No. Rather for all of the people."

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي عَالَجْتُ امْرَأَةً فِي أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ، وَإِنِّي أَصَبْتُ مِنْهَا مَا دُونَ أَنْ أَمَسَّهَا وَأَنَا هَذَا، فَاقْضِ فِيَّ مَا شِئْتَ۔ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: لَقَدْ سَتَرَكَ اللَّهُ لَوْ سَتَرْتَ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ۔ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا۔
فَانْطَلَقَ الرَّجُلُ فَأَتْبَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجُلاً فَدَعَاهُ فَتَلاَ عَلَيْهِِمِ {أَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ۔ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ: هَذَا لَهُ خَاصَّةً؟ قَالَ: «لاَ، بَلْ لِلنَّاسِ كَافَّةً۔»

"A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'O Messenger of Allah! What do you say about a man who meets a woman and there is no acquaintance between them. So there is nothing that a man who would do with his wife but he does it with her, except that he does not have intercourse with her?'" He said: "So Allah revealed: And perform the Salat, at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful (11:114). So he ordered him to perform Wudu and Salat." Then Mu'adh said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Is that specifically for him, or for the believers in general?' He said: 'Rather it is for the believers in general.'"

أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلاً لَقِيَ امْرَأَةً وَلَيْسَ بَيْنَهُمَا مَعْرِفَةٌ فَلَيْسَ يَأْتِي الرَّجُلُ شَيْئًا إِلَى امْرَأَتِهِ إِلاَّ قَدْ أَتَى هُوَ إِلَيْهَا إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُجَامِعْهَا قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ( أَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ ) فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ وَيُصَلِّيَ قَالَ مُعَاذٌ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَهِيَ لَهُ خَاصَّةً أَمْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَامَّةً قَالَ بَلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَامَّةً

that a man unlawfully kissed a woman. So he came to the Prophet ﷺ to ask him about its atonement. So (the following) Ayah was revealed: And perform the Salat, at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night (11:114). The man said: "Is this for me O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "For you and for whoever does that among my Ummah."

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةَ حَرَامٍ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ كَفَّارَتِهَا فَنَزَلَتْ ( أَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ) فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَلِيَ هَذِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَكَ وَلِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي

“And perform prayers at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful.” [11:114] The man said: “O Messenger of Allah, is this (the Verse) just for me?” He said: “It is for whoever acts upon it among my nation.”

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَجَعَلَ يَسْأَلُ عَنْ كَفَّارَتِهَا فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُ شَيْئًا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلِي هَذِهِ فَقَالَ هِيَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي

“And perform the prayer, at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful.” [11:114] He said: “O Messenger of Allah, is this only for me?” He said: “It is for everyone who acts upon it.”

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ يَعْنِي مَا دُونَ الْفَاحِشَةِ فَلاَ أَدْرِي مَا بَلَغَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ دُونَ الزِّنَا فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ {أَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلِي هَذِهِ قَالَ لِمَنْ أَخَذَ بِهَا

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I have been affected by a woman in everything except that I have not had intercourse with her." He ﷺ said: "Then perform the prayers at the beginning and end of the day, as good deeds erase bad deeds." (Surah Hud 11:114)

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا أَنِّي لَمْ أُجَامِعْهَا؟ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} [هود 114]

“And perform prayers at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful.” [11:114] The man said: “O Messenger of Allah, is this (the Verse) just for me?” He said: “It is for whoever acts upon it among my nation.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4254)

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ كَفَّارَتِهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} [هود 114] فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلِي هَذِهِ؟ قَالَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ كَذَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي

“And perform prayers at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful.” [11:114] The man said: “O Messenger of Allah, is this (the Verse) just for me?” He said: “It is for whoever acts upon it among my nation.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4254)

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ كَفَّارَتِهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} [هود 114] قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلِي هَذِهِ؟ قَالَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي

A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Prophet of Allah, I took a woman in the garden, and I have done everything with her except that I did not have sexual intercourse with her: I kissed her, fondled her, but did nothing else. So, do with me as you wish." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not say anything to him. The man left, and ʿUmar said, "Allah has concealed his fault; if only he had concealed it himself."
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then followed the man's gaze and said, "Bring him back to me." They brought him back, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited to him, "And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds. That is a reminder for those who remember. (Hūd 11:114)" Muʿādh b. Jabal asked, "Is this for him alone, O Prophet of Allah, or for all people?" He replied, "No, this is for all people."

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ إِنِّي أَخَذْتُ امْرَأَةً فِي الْبُسْتَانِ، فَفَعَلْتُ بِهَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ غَيْرَ أَنِّي لَمْ أُجَامِعْهَا، قَبَّلْتُهَا، وَلَزِمْتُهَا، وَلَمْ أَفْعَلْ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ، فَافْعَلْ بِي مَا شِئْتَ۔ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا۔ فَذَهَبَ الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لَقَدْ سَتَرَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ لَوْ سَتَرَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ۔
قَالَ: فَأَتْبَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَصَرَهُ فَقَالَ: «رُدُّوهُ عَلَيَّ.» فَرَدُّوهُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} [هود 114] إِلَى {الذَّاكِرِينَ}، فَقَالَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ: أَلَهُ وَحْدَهُ أَمْ لِلنَّاسِ كَافَّةً يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ: «بَلْ لِلنَّاسِ كَافَّةً۔»

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I encountered a woman in the garden. I embraced her, touched her, and kissed her, and I did everything except having sexual intercourse with her." The Prophet ﷺ remained silent. Then, this verse was revealed: "Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds. That is a reminder for those who remember." (Hud 114) The Prophet ﷺ called him and recited this verse to him. Umar said, "O Messenger of Allah, is this verse specific to him or for all people?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "No, it is for all people."

[Machine] "A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'I had relations with a woman in the garden, and I did everything except getting married to her. So, do with me whatever you wish.' The Prophet ﷺ remained silent. Then he called the man and recited the following verse to him: "Perform the prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds remove bad deeds."

«جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَخَذْتُ امْرَأَةً فِي الْبُسْتَانِ فَأَصَبْتُ مِنْهَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا أَنِّي لَمْ أَنْكِحْهَا فَافْعَلْ بِي مَا شِئْتَ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ دَعَاهُ فَقَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ» {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ}

[Machine] A man said, "O Messenger of Allah, I met a woman in the garden, and I embraced her, kissed her, engaged in foreplay with her, and did everything with her except for intercourse." The Messenger of Allah remained silent, so 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. That is a reminder for those who remember." The Messenger of Allah called him and recited it to him, then Umar asked, "O Messenger of Allah, is this verse specific to him?" The Messenger of Allah said, "No, it is for all people."

[Machine] A man kissed a woman and then went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have done such and such." So Allah revealed the verse, "Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds remove the evil deeds." The man asked, "Is it for me, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "No, it is for my Ummah (nation)."

أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَبَّلَ امْرَأَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي فَعَلْتُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ هِيَ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «لَا بَلْ هِيَ لِأُمَّتِي»

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I have practiced everything except intercourse with a woman." So, Allah revealed, "Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds remove bad deeds."

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ مِنْهَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا الْجِمَاعَ يَعْنِي مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ}

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, what do you think of a man who meets a woman he does not know, and he does not do anything with her except talk?" So Allah revealed the verse, "Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds. That is a reminder for those who remember." The Prophet ﷺ said to the man, "Perform ablution and then pray." Mu'adh said, "O Messenger of Allah, is this command specific to him or is it for all believers in general?" The Prophet ﷺ said three times, "No, it is for all believers in general."

أَتَى رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا تَرَى فِي رَجُلٍ لَقِيَ امْرَأَةً لَا يَعْرِفُهَا فَلَيْسَ يَأْتِي الرَّجُلُ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ شَيْئًا إِلَّا قَدْ أَتَاهُ مِنْهَا غَيْرَ أَنْ لَمْ يُجَامِعْهَا؟ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «تَوَضَّأْ ثُمَّ صَلِّ» قَالَ مُعَاذٌ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَهِيَ لَهُ خَاصَّةً أَمْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَامَّةً؟ فَقَالَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ «بَلْ هِيَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَامَّةً»

[Machine] I was sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when a man came and said, "O Messenger of Allah, a man has been afflicted by a woman whom it is not permissible for him to have relations with. He has not left anything that can afflict him from his wife except that it has afflicted him, except that he has not had intercourse with her." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Perform ablution well, then stand and pray." Then Allah revealed this verse {Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds. That is a reminder for those who remember.} Mu'adh then asked, "Is this for him specifically, O Messenger of Allah, or for all Muslims in general?" He said, "For all Muslims in general."

كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ رَجُلٌ أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ لَا تَحِلُّ لَهُ فَلَمْ يَدَعْ شَيْئًا يُصِيبُهُ الرَّجُلُ مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ إِلَّا أَتَاهُ إِلَّا إِنَّهُ لَمْ يُجَامِعْهَا؟ فَقَالَ «تَوَضَّأْ وُضُوءًا حَسَنًا ثُمَّ قُمْ فَصَلِّ» فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ هِيَ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ خَاصَّةً أَمْ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ عَامَّةً؟ قَالَ «لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ عَامَّةً»

A man kissed a woman and then came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him of that, so this Divine Inspiration was revealed to the Prophet ﷺ 'And offer Prayers perfectly at the two ends of the day, and in some hours of the night; (i.e. (five) compulsory prayers). Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds (small sins) That is a reminder for the mindful.' (11.114) The man said, Is this instruction for me only?' The Prophet ﷺ said, "It is for all those of my followers who encounter a similar situation." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4687)

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ كَفَّارَتِهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} [هود 114] قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلِي هَذِهِ؟ قَالَ «بَلْ هِيَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي»

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I have kissed a woman, what should I do?" So, the verse {And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night} [Hud 114] was revealed. The man asked, "Is it specifically for me?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "It is for whoever from my nation that acts upon it."

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا تَوْبَتِي فَنَزَلَتْ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ} [هود 114] تَلَا الْآيَةَ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ هِيَ لِي؟ قَالَ «هِيَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي»

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I married a woman in the gardens and I did everything except that I did not see anything forbidden from her. I kissed her, embraced her, and did nothing else. So do to me what you wish." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not say anything to him. The man left, and Umar said, "Allah has concealed this for him. If he had concealed it himself, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would have followed him." Umar then sent someone to bring the man back and he recited to him the verse, "And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night..." [Hud: 114]. Mu'adh said, "Is this verse specific for him or for the people in general, O Prophet of Allah?" He ﷺ said, "It is for the people in general."

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَخَذْتُ امْرَأَةً فِي الْبَسَاتِينِ فَفَعَلْتُ بِهَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ غَيْرَ أَنِّي لَمْ أَرَ مِنْهَا مُحَرَّمًا فَقَبَّلْتُهَا وَالْتَزَمْتُهَا وَلَمْ أَفْعَلْ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ فَافْعَلْ بِي مَا شِئْتَ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا فَذَهَبَ الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لَقَدْ سَتَرَ اللهُ عَلَى هَذَا لَوْ سَتَرَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ فَأَتْبَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَجُلًا وَقَالَ رُدَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَجَاءَهُ فَقَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ} [هود 114] الْآيَةَ قَالَ مُعَاذٌ أَلَهُ خَاصَّةً أَمْ لِلنَّاسِ عَامَّةً يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «لِلنَّاسِ عَامَّةً»

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I have taken a woman in the garden and I have done everything with her except marry her. Do to me whatever you want." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not say anything to him, and he left. Then he recited this verse to him: "Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds." [Hud 114]

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَخَذْتُ امْرَأَةً فِي الْبُسْتَانِ فَأَصَبْتُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ غَيْرَ أَنْ لَمْ أَنْكِحْهَا فَافْعَلْ بِي مَا شِئْتَ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا يُذْكَرُ وَطَلَعَ فَقَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ} [هود 114]

[Machine] A man had an encounter with a woman and he went to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about it. Then Allah revealed the verse: "And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night." The man asked the Prophet, "Is this verse for me, O Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet replied, "No, it is for those who adhere to it from my ummah (nation)." Abu Abdullah Al-Rahman said, "This is the correct (narration)."

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ} [هود 114] فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَلِي هَذِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ «بَلْ هِيَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا هُوَ الصَّحِيحُ

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I have experienced something with a woman less than the act of sexual intercourse, so Allah revealed this verse: 'And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night.' [Hud: 114] until 'a reminder for those who remember.' [Hud: 114]" Muadh said, "O Messenger of Allah, is it specific to me?" He said, "No, it is for all people."

إِنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ مَا دُونَ الْجِمَاعِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ} [هود 114] إِلَى {ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} [هود 114] فَقَالَ معاذ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَهُ خَاصَّةً؟ فَقَالَ «بَلِ لِلنَّاسِ كَافَّةً»

[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

A man kissed a woman and then came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him of that, so this Divine Inspiration was revealed to the Prophet ﷺ 'And offer Prayers perfectly at the two ends of the day, and in some hours of the night; (i.e. (five) compulsory prayers). Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds (small sins) That is a reminder for the mindful.' (11.114) The man said, Is this instruction for me only?' The Prophet ﷺ said, "It is for all those of my followers who encounter a similar situation." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4687)

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ قُبْلَةً فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَأُنْزِلَتْ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} [هود 114] قَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِلِيَّ هَذِهِ؟ قَالَ لِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِي
