Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ يَحْيَى مِنْ أَهْلِ مَرْوٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ مِنْ امْرَأَةٍ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا أَنِّي لَمْ أُجَامِعْهَا قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ { أَقِمْ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيْ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنْ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ }.
English Translation
Al-Hasan ibn Yahya, of the people of Marw, told us, al-Fadl ibn Musa told us, from Sufyan al-Thawri, from Simak, from Ibrahim, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Yazid, from Abdullah, who said: "A man came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I obtained from a woman everything except that I did not have intercourse with her.' He said: Then Allah revealed: 'Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and in the early hours of the night; indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds.'"
