حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ، عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو أُمَامَةَ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَىَّ . قَالَ " تَوَضَّأْتَ حِينَ أَقْبَلْتَ " . قَالَ نَعَمْ . قَالَ " هَلْ صَلَّيْتَ مَعَنَا حِينَ صَلَّيْنَا " . قَالَ نَعَمْ . قَالَ " اذْهَبْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى قَدْ عَفَا عَنْكَ " .
