[Machine] Abdullah replied, "Indeed, in the Qur'an there are two verses that if a servant commits a sin and then recites them and seeks forgiveness from Allah, he will be forgiven." They asked him about these verses, but he did not inform them. Alqamah and Al-Aswad said to each other, "Let us go with him." So they went to the house, took the Mushaf (book), and started reciting Surah Al-Baqarah. They said, "We did not see them." Then they continued reciting until they reached the verse, "And whoever does evil or wrongs himself but then seeks forgiveness from Allah, he will find Allah forgiving and merciful." They said, "This is one." Then they continued reciting Surah Al-Imran until they reached the verse, "And those who, when they commit an immorality or wrong themselves, remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins - and who can forgive sins except Allah? And [who] do not persist in what they have done while they know." They said, "This is the other." Then they closed the book and went to Abdullah and asked, "Are these the two verses?" He replied, "Yes."
