A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: O Messenger of Allah, I met a woman in a garden and I embraced her, touched her, kissed her and did everything with her except that I did not have intercourse with her. The Prophet (ﷺ) did not answer, then this verse was revealed: “Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds (i.e. small sins). That is a reminder (an advice) for the mindful (those who accept advice)" (Hood 11:114). Then the Prophet (ﷺ) called him and recited it to him. ‘Umar said: O Messenger of Allah, is that only for him or for all the people? He said: “Rather it is for all the people.”
