It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: I heard a hadith from the blessed mouth of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); had I heard it only once or twice - until he counted up to seven times - (I might not have narrated it), but I heard it far more often than that. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Among the Children of Israel there was a man called Kifl who would not refrain from any sin. A woman came to him, and he gave her sixty dinars (for fornication). When he sat with her the way a husband sits with his wife, the woman began to tremble and weep. He asked: Why are you weeping? Have I forced you? She said: No, but this is something I have never done; only my need and hardship have driven me to it. He said: You have never done this, and now (out of hardship) you are doing it? The narrator says: Then he moved away from her and said: Go, and these dinars are yours too. Then he said: By Allah, Kifl will never again disobey his Lord. That very night he died, and in the morning it was found written on his door: 'Indeed, Allah has forgiven Kifl.'" This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
