The art of youth empowerment

'O Messenger of Allah, give me a permission of Zina.'

The Companions turned to him and started rebuking him. The Prophet said: "Come closer."

When the young man drew nearer to the Prophet and sat down, the Prophet asked him: "Would you like it for your mother?"

The man answered; No, by Allah. May Allah make me a protection for you!

The Prophet commented, "People also do not like it for their mothers." The Prophet added, "Would you like it for your daughter?"

Again, the young man answered negatively. So, the Prophet said, "People too would not love it for their daughters"

Further, the Prophet asked, "Would you like it for your sister?" The Prophet received the same answer and made the same comment. The Prophet went on asking about the man's paternal and maternal aunts. The young man's answer was the same and the Prophet repeated the same comment, "People do not like that for their aunts."

The Prophet then placed his hand on the young man and prayed for him, "O Allah, forgive his sins, purify his heart, and protect his chastity."

Abu Umamah, the narrator of the hadith, said that the young man did not pay heed to any temptation thereafter. (Authenticated by Al-Albani)
