that Abu Al-Yasar said: "A woman came to me selling dates. I said to her: 'There are better dates than these in the house.' So she entered the house with me. I had an urge for her so I began kissing her. I went to Abu Bakr and mentioned that to him, so he said: 'Cover what you have done, repent, do not inform any one, and never do it again.' So I went to 'Umar and mentioned that to him. He said: 'Cover what you have done, repent, do not inform any one, and never do it again.' Then I went to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned it to him." He said: 'Is this how you take care of the wife of someone who is away fighting in Allah's cause?" Such that he had wished he had not accepted Islam until that very time, and he thought that he must be one of the people of the Fire." He said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ bowed his head for a long time, until Allah revealed to him: 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). Abu Al-Yasar said: "So I went to him and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited it for me. A companion of his said: "O Messenger of Allah! Is this specific, or is it for the people in general?" He said: "Rather it is for the people in general."

[Machine] A woman came to me to buy some dates, so I said to her, "Indeed, there are better dates than these in the house." She entered the house with me, and I inclined towards her, winked at her, and kissed her. Then, I gave her some dates in my hand and went to Abu Bakr and mentioned it to him. He said, "Keep this to yourself and do not tell anyone." I couldn't bear it, so I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned it to him. He said, "Did you engage in combat with the enemy and betray his trust with something like this?" Until I wished that I had not embraced Islam except at that moment, to the extent that I thought I was one of the dwellers of Hell. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained silent for a long time, then Allah revealed to him, {Establish prayer at the two ends of the day} until the end of the verse. Abu Al-Yasar said, "So I went to him and recited it to him." His companions asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, is it specific to you or for people in general?" He ﷺ said, "No, it is for people in general."
