Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: I have been ruined. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: What has happened to you? He replied: I had intercourse with my wife while fasting. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Do you have a slave whom you can free? He replied: No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Can you fast for two consecutive months? He replied: No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Can you feed sixty needy people? He replied: No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sit down. Then a basket was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in which there were dates; it was a large measure. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Take this and give it as charity to sixty needy people. He replied: There is no family in the whole city poorer than ours. The narrator says: So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled until his molar teeth became visible. He said: Then take it and feed it to your family.
