A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I am ruined!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Why?" He said, "I had sexual intercourse with my wife while fasting (in the month of Ramadan)." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Manumit a slave (as expiation)." He replied, "I cannot afford that." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then fast for two successive months." He said, "I cannot." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then feed sixty poor persons." He said, "I have nothing to do that." In the meantime a basket full of dates was brought to the Prophet ﷺ . He said, "Where is the questioner." The man said, "I am here." The Prophet ﷺ said (to him), "Give this (basket of dates) in charity (as expiation)." He said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Shall I give it to poorer people than us? By Him Who sent you with the Truth, there is no family between Medina's two mountains poorer than us." The Prophet ﷺ smiled till his pre-molar teeth became visible. He then said, "Then take it."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Where is the questioner? Go and give this in charity." The man said, "(Shall I give this in charity) to a poorer person than l? By Allah, there is no family in between these two mountains (of Medina) who are poorer than we." The Prophet ﷺ then smiled till his premolar teeth became visible, and said, "Then (feed) your (family with it).

The Prophet said, 'Free a slave.' The man replied, 'I cannot afford it.' The Prophet said, 'Then fast for two consecutive months.' The man said, 'I am unable to do that.' The Prophet said, 'Then feed sixty poor people.' The man said, 'I cannot find that many.' The Prophet then brought a basket filled with fifteen saa' worth of dates and said, 'Then give this in charity.' The man replied, 'I swear, the poorest person in my family is more in need of it than my family.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled until his teeth were visible and said, 'Take it and seek forgiveness from Allah, and feed your family with it.'"

رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلَكَتُ قَالَ «وَيْحَكَ وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ » قَالَ وَقَعَتُ عَلَى امْرَأَتِي فِي يَوْمٍ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ قَالَ «أَعْتِقْ رَقَبَةً» قَالَ مَا أَجِدُ قَالَ «فَصُمْ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ» قَالَ مَا أَسْتَطِيعُ قَالَ «أَطْعِمْ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا» قَالَ مَا أَجِدُ قَالَ فَأُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِعَرَقٍ فِيهِ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ «فَتَصَدَّقْ بِهِ» قَالَ عَلَى أَفْقَرَ مِنْ أَهْلِي مَا بَيْنَ لَابَتَيِ الْمَدِينَةِ أَحْوَجُ مِنْ أَهْلِي فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى بَدَتْ أَنْيَابُهُ وَقَالَ «خُذْهُ وَاسْتَغْفَرِ اللَّهَ وَأَطْعِمْهُ أَهْلَكَ»

The man said: "O Messenger of Allah, it is on someone other than my family." The Prophet ﷺ laughed until his teeth were visible, and then he said: "Take it and seek forgiveness from your Lord."
