Chapter 7 · Establishing the Prayer and the Sunnah Regarding Themحَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ: أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ يَعْنِي: مَا دُونَ الْفَاحِشَةِ، فَلَا أَدْرِي مَا بَلَغَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ دُونَ الزِّنَا، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ: وَأَقِمِ الصَّلاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ [سورة هود آية 114]، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَلِي هَذِهِ؟، قَالَ: لِمَنْ أَخَذَ بِهَا .

A man did something with a woman that was less than adultery; I do not know how far it went, but it was less than adultery. He went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and told him about that. Then Allah revealed the words: “And perform the prayer, 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] He said: “O Messenger of Allah, is this only for me?” He said: “It is for everyone who acts upon it.”
