سنن نسائی · Hadith 4018
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbás that some people used to kill, and they did a great deal of it, and they used to commit adultery and they did a great deal of it, and they committed violations. They came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and said: “Mul what you say and call people to is good, if only you could tell us that there is any expiation for what we have done.” Then Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed: “And those who invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah up to for those, Allah will change their sins into good dee he said: “So Allah will change their Shirk into faith, and their adultery into chastity. And the Verse: “Say: ‘IbadI (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)” was revealed, (Hasan)
