Chapter. If somebody commits a sin which is less than what deserve the legal punishment; and then informs the ruler, no punishment is to be inflicted on him after his repentance to Allah if he comes to the ruler with the intention of asking for a verdict about his sin.
Narrated Abu Huraira: A person had sexual relation with his wife in the month of Ramadan (while he was fasting), and he came to Allah's Apostle seeking his verdict concerning that action. The Prophet said (to him), "Can you afford to manumit a slave?" The man said, "No." The Prophet said, "Can you fast for two successive months?" He said, "No." The Prophet said, "Then feed sixty poor persons."
Ata said that in such a case, the Prophet (ﷺ) did not impose any punishment on him. Ibn Jurayj said that the Prophet (ﷺ) did not impose any punishment on the person who had intercourse with his wife during Ramadan. Similarly, Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did not punish the one who hunted a deer while in the state of ihram, and in this chapter, there is a narration of Abu Uthman from Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) attributed to the Prophet (ﷺ).

Narrated 'Aisha: A man came to the Prophet in the mosque and said, "I am burnt (ruined)!" The Prophet 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 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 ..... (The sub-narrator, 'Abdur Rahman added: I do not know what kind of food it was). On that the Prophet said, "Where is the burnt person?" The man said, "Here I am." The Prophet 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 said to him, "Then eat it yourselves."
