English Translation
Abu Umamah reported: A young man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, permit me to commit fornication.' The people shouted at him, but the Messenger of Allah said, 'Enough!' Then the Messenger of Allah said, 'Let him be. Come close.' So he came close until he sat before the Messenger of Allah. The Messenger of Allah said to him, 'Would you like it for your mother?' He said, 'No.' He said, 'Likewise, people do not like it for their mothers. Would you like it for your daughter?' He said, 'No.' He said, 'Likewise, people do not like it for their daughters. Would you like it for your sister?' He said, 'No.' He said, 'Likewise, people do not like it for their sisters. Would you like it for your paternal aunt?' He said, 'No.' He said, 'Likewise, people do not like it for their paternal aunts. Would you like it for your maternal aunt?' He said, 'No.' He said, 'Likewise, people do not like it for their maternal aunts.' Then the Messenger of Allah placed his hand on the young man's chest and said, 'O Allah, forgive his sin, purify his heart, and fortify his chastity.'
