[Machine] Verily, I understood a level of utmost understanding from the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , when he drew water from a bucket in our house. Mahmoud said: 'It was narrated to me by 'Utbaan ibn Maalik who said: I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, my eyesight has become weak and when the rain becomes intense and the valley overflows, it becomes difficult for me to reach the mosque of my people for prayer. So if I were to pray in my own house in a specific place, would that be considered a place of prayer?' The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said: 'Yes, it would be.' So the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , came to me the next day with Abu Bakr. They sought permission and I granted it to them. He did not sit down until he said: 'Where would you like me to pray in your house?' So I pointed to a corner, and the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , advanced and we lined up behind him. He prayed two units of prayer with us, and we made a makeshift platform for the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ .  

إِنِّي لَأَعْقِلُ مَجَّةً مَجَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ دَلْوٍ فِي دَارِنَا قَالَ مَحْمُودٌ فَحَدَّثَنِي عِتْبَانُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ بَصَرِي قَدْ سَاءَ وَإِنَّ الْأَمْطَارَ إِذَا اشْتَدَّتْ وَسَالَ الْوَادِي حَالَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ الصَّلَاةِ فِي مَسْجِدِ قَوْمِي فَلَوْ صَلَّيْتَ فِي مَنْزِلِي مَكَانًا أَتَّخِذُهُ مُصَلًّى؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَغَدَا عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَاسْتَأْذَنَا فَأُذِنَ لَهُمَا فَمَا جَلَسَ حَتَّى قَالَ أَيْنَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي مَنْزِلِكَ؟ فَأَشَرْتُ لَهُ إِلَى نَاحِيَةٍ فَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَفَفْنَا خَلْفَهُ فَصَلَّى بِنَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَحَبَسْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى جَشِيشَةٍ صَنَعْنَاهَا لَهُ
