English Translation
Ibn Abbas narrated: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) ordered the stoning of Ma'iz ibn Malik, they came and informed him that they had carried it out. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 'He has repented with such a repentance that if a tax collector had repented likewise, it would have been accepted from him.'
