Does one who repents from the secret habit fall under the hadith: “Whoever guarantees to me what is between his two jaws and what is between his two legs, I guarantee him Paradise”?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Does one who repents from the secret habit fall under the hadith:
Whoever can guarantee (the chastity of) what is between his two jaw-bones and what is between his two legs (i.e. his tongue and his private parts), I guarantee Paradise for him.من يضمن لي ما بين لحييه وما بين رجليه أضمن له الجنة؟
Sahih al-Bukhari 6474


Answer:
Yes, he falls under this; he falls under it, because the secret habit is forbidden, and it is taking pleasure in what Allah has not made lawful. So if he repents from it, Allah will accept his repentance. If he guards his private parts, if he guards his private parts from this evil habit, he will fall under the noble promise from Allah the Exalted.
