"قَرَأَ أُبَىُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ: وَلاَ تَقْرَبُوا الزِّنَا إِنَّهُ كَانَ فَاحِشَةً وَمَقْتًا وَسَاءَ سَبِيلًا إِلاَّ

مَنْ تَابَ فَإِنَّ الله كَانَ غَفُورًا رَحِيمًا، فَذُكِرَ لعُمَرَ فَأَتَاهُ فَسَألَهُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ: أَخَذْتُهَا مِنْ فِى رَسُولِ الله ﷺ وَلَيْسَ لَكَ عَمَلٌ إِلاَ الصَّفْقُ (*) بِالْبَقِيعِ (* *) ".
