Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man said,“O Messenger of Allah! I met a woman in a garden, I embraced her, I kissed her, I did everything with her except intercourse.”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. Then Allah the Exalted revealed this verse:“Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at some hours of the night. Indeed, good deeds erase bad deeds. That is a reminder for those who remember.”The narrator says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called the man and recited this verse to him. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said,“O Messenger of Allah! Is this ruling specific to him?”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“(No), rather it is for all people.”
