Sahih al-Bukhari
Sahih al-Bukhari 667
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَنَّ عِتْبَانَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، كَانَ يَؤُمُّ قَوْمَهُ وَهْوَ أَعْمَى، وَأَنَّهُ قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّهَا تَكُونُ الظُّلْمَةُ وَالسَّيْلُ وَأَنَا رَجُلٌ ضَرِيرُ الْبَصَرِ، فَصَلِّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِي بَيْتِي مَكَانًا أَتَّخِذُهُ مُصَلًّى، فَجَاءَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ " أَيْنَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ ". فَأَشَارَ إِلَى مَكَانٍ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ، فَصَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم.
Isma‘il narrated to us: Malik narrated to me, from Ibn Shihab, from Mahmud bin al-Rabi‘ al-Ansari, that ‘Itban bin Malik, who was blind, used to lead his people in prayer. He said to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), ‘Messenger of Allah, it is dark and there is flooding, and I have poor eyesight. Please pray in my house at a place that I can make into a prayer area.’ The Messenger of Allah came to him and asked, ‘Where would you like me to pray?’ He pointed to a place in the house, and the Messenger of Allah prayed there.
