Book 86: Limits and Punishments set by Allah (Hudood)

Chapter 26 If somebody commits a sin less than the legal punishment and informs the ruler, no punishment is to be inflicted on him after his repentance
بَابُ مَنْ أَصَابَ ذَنْبًا دُونَ الْحَدِّ فَأَخْبَرَ الإِمَامَ فَلاَ عُقُوبَةَ عَلَيْهِ بَعْدَ التَّوْبَةِ إِذَا جَاءَ مُسْتَفْتِيًا
Sahih al-Bukhari 6822

Narrated ‘Aisha:

A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) in the mosque and said, “I am burnt
(ruined)!” The Prophet (ﷺ) asked him, “With what (what have you done)?” He
said, “I have had sexual relation with my wife in the month of Ramadan
(while fasting).” The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, “Give in charity.” He said,
“I have nothing.” The man sat down, and in the meantime there came a
person driving a donkey carrying food to the Prophet (ﷺ) ….. (The
sub-narrator, ‘Abdur Rahman added: I do not know what kind of food it
was). On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Where is the burnt person?” The man
said, “Here I am.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, “Take this (food) and give
it in charity (to someone).” The man said, “To a poorer person than l?
My family has nothing to eat.” Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, “Then
eat it yourselves.”
