أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْبَأَنَا دَاوُدُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَسْلَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ ارْتَدَّ وَلَحِقَ بِالشِّرْكِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ تَنَدَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ سَلُوا لِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ هَلْ لِي مِنْ تَوْبَةٍ ؟ فَجَاءَ قَوْمُهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ فُلَانًا قَدْ نَدِمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّهُ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَسْأَلَكَ هَلْ لَهُ مِنْ تَوْبَةٍ ؟ فَنَزَلَتْ:‏‏‏‏ كَيْفَ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ قَوْمًا كَفَرُوا بَعْدَ إِيمَانِهِمْ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ [سورة آل عمران آية 86 - 89]،‏‏‏‏ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ فَأَسْلَمَ .

A man from among the Ansar accepted Islam, then he apostatized and went back to Shirk. Then he regretted that, and sent word to his people (saying): 'Ask the Messenger of Allah [ﷺ], is there any repentance for me?' His people came to the Messenger of Allah [ﷺ] and said: 'So and so regrets (what he did), and he has told us to ask you if there is any repentance for him?' Then the Verses: 'How shall Allah guide a people who disbelieved after their Belief up to His saying: Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful' was revealed. So he sent word to him, and he accepted Islam.
