who attended the Badr battle and was from the Ansar, that he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Allah's Apostle! I have lost my eyesight and I lead my people in the prayer (as an Imam). When it rains, the valley which is between me and my people, flows with water, and then I cannot go to their mosque to lead them in the prayer. O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I wish that you could come and pray in my house so that I may take it as a praying place. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Allah willing, I will do that." The next morning, soon after the sun had risen, Messenger of Allah ﷺ came with Abu Bakr. The Prophet ﷺ asked for the permission to enter and I admitted him. The Prophet ﷺ had not sat till he had entered the house and said to me, "Where do you like me to pray in your house?" I pointed at a place in my house whereupon he stood and said, "Allahu Akbar." We lined behind him and he prayed two rakʿat and finished it with Taslim. We then requested him to stay for a special meal of Khazira which we had prepared. A large number of men from the adjoining area gathered in the house. One of them said, "Where is Malik bin Ad-Dukhshun?" Another man said, "He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Apostle." The Prophet said, "Do not say so. Do you not think that he has said: "None has the right to be worshipped but Allah," seeking Allah's pleasure? The man said, "Allah and His Apostle know better, but we have always seen him mixing with hypocrites and giving them advice." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Allah has forbidden the (Hell) Fire for those who testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, seeking Allah's pleasure. "

who was one of the companions of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and one of the Ansar's who took part in the battle of Badr: I came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ I have weak eyesight and I lead my people in prayers. When it rains the water flows in the valley between me and my people so I cannot go to their mosque to lead them in prayer. O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I wish you would come to my house and pray in it so that I could take that place as a Musalla. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said. "Allah willing, I will do so." Next day after the sun rose high, Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr came and Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked for permission to enter. I gave him permission and he did not sit on entering the house but said to me, "Where do you like me to pray?" I pointed to a place in my house. So Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood there and said, 'Allahu Akbar', and we all got up and aligned behind him and offered a two-rakʿat prayer and ended it with Taslim. We requested him to stay for a meal called "Khazira" which we had prepared for him. Many members of our family gathered in the house and one of them said, "Where is Malik bin Al-Dukhaishin or Ibn Al-Dukhshun?" One of them replied, "He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Apostle." Hearing that, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not say so. Haven't you seen that he said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah' for Allah's sake only?" He said, "Allah and His Apostle know better. We have seen him helping and advising hypocrites." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire for those who say, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah' for Allah's sake only."

that he remembered Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he also remembered a mouthful of water which he had thrown on his face, after taking it from a well that was in their house. Mahmud said that he had heard ʿItban bin Malik, who was present with Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the battle of Badr saying, "I used to lead my people at Bani Salim in the prayer and there was a valley between me and those people. Whenever it rained it used to be difficult for me to cross it to go to their mosque. So I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'I have weak eyesight and the valley between me and my people flows during the rainy season and it becomes difficult for me to cross it; I wish you would come to my house and pray at a place so that I could take that place as a praying place.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I will do so.' So Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr came to my house in the (next) morning after the sun had risen high. Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked my permission to let him in and I admitted him. He did not sit before saying, 'Where do you want us to offer the prayer in your house?' I pointed to the place where I wanted him to pray. So Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up for the prayer and started the prayer with Takbir and we aligned in rows behind him; and he offered two rakʿat, and finished them with Taslim, and we also performed Taslim with him. I detained him for a meal called "Khazir" which I had prepared for him.--("Khazir" is a special type of dish prepared from barley flour and meat soup)-- When the neighbors got the news that Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in my house, they poured it till there were a great number of men in the house. One of them said, 'What is wrong with Malik, for I do not see him?' One of them replied, 'He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Apostle.' On that Allah's Apostle said, 'Don't say this. Haven't you seen that he said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah for Allah's sake only.' The man replied, 'Allah and His Apostle know better; but by Allah, we never saw him but helping and talking with the hypocrites.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, 'No doubt, whoever says. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and by that he wants the pleasures of Allah, then Allah will save him from Hell." Mahmud added, "I told the above narration to some people, one of whom was Abu Aiyub, the companion of Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the battle in which he (Abu Aiyub) died and Yazid bin Mu'awiya was their leader in Roman Territory. Abu Aiyub denounced the narration and said, 'I doubt that Messenger of Allah ﷺ ever said what you have said.' I felt that too much, and I vowed to Allah that if I remained alive in that holy battle, I would (go to Medina and) ask ʿItban bin Malik if he was still living in the mosque of his people. So when he returned, I assumed Ihram for Hajj or ʿUmra and then I proceeded on till I reached Medina. I went to Bani Salim and ʿItban bin Malik, who was by then an old blind man, was leading his people in the prayer. When he finished the prayer, I greeted him and introduced myself to him and then asked him about that narration. He told that narration again in the same manner as he had narrated it the first time."

Messenger of Allah, I have lost my eyesight and I lead my people in prayer. When there is a downpour there is then a current (of water) in the valley that stands between me and them and I find it impossible to go to their mosque and lead them in prayer. Messenger of Allah, I earnestly beg of you that you should come and observe prayer at a place of worship (in my house) so that I should then use it as a place of worship. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Well, it God so wills. I would soon do so. 'Itban said: On the following day when the day dawned, the Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) came along with Abu Bakr at-Siddiq, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked permission (to get into the house). I gave him the permission, and be did not sit after entering the house, when he said: At what place in your house you desire me to say prayer? I ('Itban b. Malik) said: I pointed to a corner in the house, The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood (at that place for prayer) and pronounced Allah-o-Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) (as an expression for the commencement of prayer). We too stood behind him, and he said two rak'ahs and then pronounced salutation (marking the end of the prayer). We detained him (the Holy Prophet) for the meat curry we had prepared for, him. The people of the neighbouring houses came and thus there was a good gathering in (our house). One of them said: Where is Malik b. Dukhshun? Upon this one of them remarked: He is a hypocrite; he does not love Allah and His Messenger. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Do not say so about him. Don't you see that he utters La ilaha ill-Allah (There is no god but Allah) and seeks the pleasure of Allah through it? They said: Allah and His Messenger know beet. One (among the audience) said: We see his inclination and wellwishing for hypocrites only. Upon this the Messenger of Allah' ﷺ again said: Verily Allah has forbidden the Fire for one who says: There is no god but Allah, thereby seeking Allah's pleasure. Ibn Shihab said: I asked Husain b. Muhammad al-Ansar (he was one of the leaders of Banu Salim) about the hadith transmitted by Mahmud b. Rabi' and he testified it.

أَنَّ عِتْبَانَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ وَهُوَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ أَنَّهُ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ أَنْكَرْتُ بَصَرِي وَأَنَا أُصَلِّي لِقَوْمِي وَإِذَا كَانَتِ الأَمْطَارُ سَالَ الْوَادِي الَّذِي بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ وَلَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ آتِيَ مَسْجِدَهُمْ فَأُصَلِّيَ لَهُمْ وَدِدْتُ أَنَّكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ تَأْتِي فَتُصَلِّي فِي مُصَلًّى فَأَتَّخِذَهُ مُصَلًّى قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَأَفْعَلُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ قَالَ عِتْبَانُ فَغَدَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ حِينَ ارْتَفَعَ النَّهَارُ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَذِنْتُ لَهُ فَلَمْ يَجْلِسْ حَتَّى دَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيْنَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ مِنْ بَيْتِكِ قَالَ فَأَشَرْتُ إِلَى نَاحِيَةٍ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَبَّرَ فَقُمْنَا وَرَاءَهُ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ قَالَ وَحَبَسْنَاهُ عَلَى خَزِيرٍ صَنَعْنَاهُ لَهُ قَالَ فَثَابَ رِجَالٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الدَّارِ حَوْلَنَا حَتَّى اجْتَمَعَ فِي الْبَيْتِ رِجَالٌ ذَوُو عَدَدٍ فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ مِنْهُمْ أَيْنَ مَالِكُ بْنُ الدُّخْشُنِ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ ذَلِكَ مُنَافِقٌ لاَ يُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ تَقُلْ لَهُ ذَلِكَ أَلاَ تَرَاهُ قَدْ قَالَ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ يُرِيدُ بِذَلِكَ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ فَإِنَّمَا نَرَى وَجْهَهُ وَنَصِيحَتَهُ لِلْمُنَافِقِينَ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ حَرَّمَ عَلَى النَّارِ مَنْ قَالَ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ يَبْتَغِي بِذَلِكَ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ الْحُصَيْنَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ الأَنْصَارِيَّ وَهُوَ أَحَدُ بَنِي سَالِمٍ وَهُوَ مِنْ سَرَاتِهِمْ عَنْ حَدِيثِ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ فَصَدَّقَهُ بِذَلِكَ

[Machine] He said, "O Messenger of Allah, a river separates me and the mosque of my people, so I would like for you to come to me and pray in a place in my house that I have made a mosque." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "We will do that." So when the morning came, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went to Abu Bakr, and he followed him. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered, he said, "Where do you want?" I pointed to a spot in the house, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood and we lined up behind him, and he prayed with us two units of prayer. We then built a fence around it and the people of the village heard, so they started to come, and the house became crowded. A man from the people asked, "Where is Malik ibn Dukhshum?" A man replied, "That is one of the hypocrites." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not say that, he says, 'There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah' seeking the face of Allah with it." He said, "As for us, we see his face and hear his speech." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not say that, he says, 'There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah' seeking the face of Allah with it." A man from the people said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If a slave fulfills this on the Day of Resurrection, saying, 'There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah' seeking the face of Allah with it, Allah will make forbidden for him the Fire." Mahmud narrated this to some people, among them was Abu Ayyub. He said, "I do not think the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said this." So I said, "If I return and the blind man is still alive, I will ask him." So I went to him and he was blind, but he was the leader of his people. I asked him, and he narrated to me just as he had before, and he was a Badri companion.

[Machine] My father, memorize this hadith, for it is from the treasures of hadith. When we finished, we went back to the city and asked about it. We found the person alive and he was an old blind man. We asked him about the hadith and he said, "Yes, my sight was lost during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, my sight is gone and I cannot pray behind you. If you can assign a mosque in my house and I pray in it, may it be considered my place of worship?' He said, 'Yes, I will come to you tomorrow.' When he finished the morning prayer the next day, he turned to me, stood up and approached me. He said, 'O 'Utbah, where do you want me to assign a place for you?' So I described a place for him and he assigned it to me. Then he prayed in it and stayed seated. The news reached the Ansar around us, so they came until the house was filled. They mentioned the hypocrites and the harm they cause, until they assigned one of the hypocrites, Malik bin Dukhshum, to handle their affairs. They said, 'Look at his position and the position of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was silent. When their talk became excessive, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Is it not true that there is no deity except Allah?' When it was the third time, they said, 'Indeed, he says it.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'By the One who sent me with the truth, if he says it with sincerity from his heart, the fire will never consume him.' They never rejoiced in anything as they did with what he said."

[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Indeed, I have lost my sight, and the rivers block my way to my mosque. I wish you had come and prayed in my house, a place I could make a mosque." The Prophet ﷺ said, "I will do so, God willing." He then passed by Abu Bakr and followed him until they reached my house. He asked for permission to enter, and I granted it. He asked me, while I was standing, where I wanted to pray. I pointed to the spot where I desired, and he said, "Then I will confine you in a room that we have prepared for you." The people of the neighborhood, meaning the people of Dar, heard and rushed to him until the house was filled. A man asked, "Where is Malik ibn Dukhshun?" Perhaps he said Malik ibn Dukhayshin. Another man said, "That is a hypocrite who does not love Allah or His Messenger." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not say that. He says 'There is no deity but Allah' to seek the face of Allah." The man said, "But we see his face and hear his speech for the hypocrites." The Prophet ﷺ said again, "Do not say that. He says 'There is no deity but Allah' to seek the face of Allah." The man said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "A servant who says 'There is no deity but Allah' to seek the face of Allah will not be in Hell." Mahmoud said, "So I narrated this Hadith to a group of them, including Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari. He said, 'I do not think the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said what you said.' I said, 'If I return to Atban, I will ask him.' So I went back to him and found that he was an elderly man who had lost his sight, but he was the leader of his people. I sat next to him and asked him about this Hadith, and he narrated it to me as he did the first time. Ma'mar said, 'And then the obligations and matters were revealed, and we believe that the matter has reached its conclusion. Whoever can prevent himself from being deceived, let him not be deceived."

[Machine] He informed him that 'Utban ibn Malik, who was from the companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and had participated in the Battle of Badr among the Ansar, came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have lost my eyesight, but I still pray for my people. When it rains, the valley between me and the mosque floods, and I cannot go to their mosque to pray for them. I wish that you, O Messenger of Allah, would come and pray in my house and make it a place of worship." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "I will do that." The next day, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and Abu Bakr As-Siddiq entered the house when the day had brightened. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) sought permission, and I granted him permission. He did not sit down until he entered the house, and then he said, "Where would you like me to pray in your house?" I pointed to a corner of the house. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) stood up, said the Takbir, and we stood behind him. He prayed two Rak'ahs and then said the Salam. We detained him in a corner which we made for him. Some men from the people of the house surrounded him until a large number of men gathered in the house. One of them said, "Where is Malik ibn Dukhshun?" Some of them said, "He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Messenger." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said to them, "Do not say that to him. Do you not see that he has said, 'There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah,' seeking the Face of Allah with that?" They said, "Allah and His Messenger know best. We only see his face and his advice to the hypocrites." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "Indeed, Allah, the Most Exalted and High, has forbidden the Fire for whoever says, 'There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah,' seeking the Face of Allah with it."

Messenger of Allah, I have lost my eyesight and I lead my people in prayer. When there is a downpour there is then a current (of water) in the valley that stands between me and them and I find it impossible to go to their mosque and lead them in prayer. Messenger of Allah, I earnestly beg of you that you should come and observe prayer at a place of worship (in my house) so that I should then use it as a place of worship. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Well, it God so wills. I would soon do so. 'Itban said: On the following day when the day dawned, the Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) came along with Abu Bakr at-Siddiq, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked permission (to get into the house). I gave him the permission, and be did not sit after entering the house, when he said: At what place in your house you desire me to say prayer? I ('Itban b. Malik) said: I pointed to a corner in the house, The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood (at that place for prayer) and pronounced Allah-o-Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) (as an expression for the commencement of prayer). We too stood behind him, and he said two rak'ahs and then pronounced salutation (marking the end of the prayer). We detained him (the Holy Prophet) for the meat curry we had prepared for, him. The people of the neighbouring houses came and thus there was a good gathering in (our house). One of them said: Where is Malik b. Dukhshun? Upon this one of them remarked: He is a hypocrite; he does not love Allah and His Messenger. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Do not say so about him. Don't you see that he utters La ilaha ill-Allah (There is no god but Allah) and seeks the pleasure of Allah through it? They said: Allah and His Messenger know beet. One (among the audience) said: We see his inclination and wellwishing for hypocrites only. Upon this the Messenger of Allah' ﷺ again said: Verily Allah has forbidden the Fire for one who says: There is no god but Allah, thereby seeking Allah's pleasure. Ibn Shihab said: I asked Husain b. Muhammad al-Ansar (he was one of the leaders of Banu Salim) about the hadith transmitted by Mahmud b. Rabi' and he testified it. (Using translation from Muslim 33c)

[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Indeed, I have lost my sight, and the paths prevent me from reaching the mosque of my people. I wish that you came and prayed in a designated place in my house. The Prophet ﷺ replied, 'I will do so, if Allah wills.' The Prophet ﷺ then passed by Abu Bakr and followed him. He entered and asked while standing, 'Where do you want me to pray?' I pointed to where I wanted him to pray, and then we confined him in a small enclosure that we made for him. The people of the valley, meaning the people of the house, heard about this and flocked to him until the house was filled. A man asked, 'Where is Malik bin Ad-Dukhshun or Ibn Ad-Dukhaysh?' Another man replied, 'He is a hypocrite who does not love Allah or His Messenger.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Do not say that while I am saying La ilaha illallah. He seeks by it the countenance of Allah.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we see his face and hear his speech concerning the hypocrites.' The Prophet ﷺ said again, 'Do not say that while I am saying La ilaha illallah. He seeks by it the countenance of Allah.' They said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'Therefore, on the Day of Resurrection, there will not be anyone who says La ilaha illallah seeking by it the countenance of Allah except that Allah will prohibit him from the Fire.' Mahmoud (the narrator) said, 'So I conveyed this Hadith to some people, including Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari, who said, 'I do not think the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said what you have said. If I return to Itban bin Malik, I will ask him.' So, I went back to him and found him to be an elderly man who had lost his sight, yet he was the leader of his people. I sat beside him and asked him about this Hadith, and he narrated it to me as he had before. Ma'mar said, 'When Az-Zuhri narrated this Hadith, he used to say, 'Then after that, obligations and matters were revealed. We consider this matter to have been completed. So whoever is able to not change, should not change.'

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Do not say that. Do you not see that he testifies that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, seeking thereby the Face of Allah?'

that he remembered Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he also remembered a mouthful of water which he had thrown on his face, after taking it from a well that was in their house. Mahmud said that he had heard ʿItban bin Malik, who was present with Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the battle of Badr saying, "I used to lead my people at Bani Salim in the prayer and there was a valley between me and those people. Whenever it rained it used to be difficult for me to cross it to go to their mosque. So I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'I have weak eyesight and the valley between me and my people flows during the rainy season and it becomes difficult for me to cross it; I wish you would come to my house and pray at a place so that I could take that place as a praying place.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I will do so.' So Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr came to my house in the (next) morning after the sun had risen high. Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked my permission to let him in and I admitted him. He did not sit before saying, 'Where do you want us to offer the prayer in your house?' I pointed to the place where I wanted him to pray. So Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up for the prayer and started the prayer with Takbir and we aligned in rows behind him; and he offered two rakʿat, and finished them with Taslim, and we also performed Taslim with him. I detained him for a meal called "Khazir" which I had prepared for him.--("Khazir" is a special type of dish prepared from barley flour and meat soup)-- When the neighbors got the news that Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in my house, they poured it till there were a great number of men in the house. One of them said, 'What is wrong with Malik, for I do not see him?' One of them replied, 'He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Apostle.' On that Allah's Apostle said, 'Don't say this. Haven't you seen that he said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah for Allah's sake only.' The man replied, 'Allah and His Apostle know better; but by Allah, we never saw him but helping and talking with the hypocrites.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, 'No doubt, whoever says. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and by that he wants the pleasures of Allah, then Allah will save him from Hell." Mahmud added, "I told the above narration to some people, one of whom was Abu Aiyub, the companion of Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the battle in which he (Abu Aiyub) died and Yazid bin Mu'awiya was their leader in Roman Territory. Abu Aiyub denounced the narration and said, 'I doubt that Messenger of Allah ﷺ ever said what you have said.' I felt that too much, and I vowed to Allah that if I remained alive in that holy battle, I would (go to Medina and) ask ʿItban bin Malik if he was still living in the mosque of his people. So when he returned, I assumed Ihram for Hajj or ʿUmra and then I proceeded on till I reached Medina. I went to Bani Salim and ʿItban bin Malik, who was by then an old blind man, was leading his people in the prayer. When he finished the prayer, I greeted him and introduced myself to him and then asked him about that narration. He told that narration again in the same manner as he had narrated it the first time."

who was one of the companions of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and one of the Ansar's who took part in the battle of Badr: I came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ I have weak eyesight and I lead my people in prayers. When it rains the water flows in the valley between me and my people so I cannot go to their mosque to lead them in prayer. O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I wish you would come to my house and pray in it so that I could take that place as a Musalla. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said. "Allah willing, I will do so." Next day after the sun rose high, Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr came and Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked for permission to enter. I gave him permission and he did not sit on entering the house but said to me, "Where do you like me to pray?" I pointed to a place in my house. So Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood there and said, 'Allahu Akbar', and we all got up and aligned behind him and offered a two-rakʿat prayer and ended it with Taslim. We requested him to stay for a meal called "Khazira" which we had prepared for him. Many members of our family gathered in the house and one of them said, "Where is Malik bin Al-Dukhaishin or Ibn Al-Dukhshun?" One of them replied, "He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Apostle." Hearing that, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not say so. Haven't you seen that he said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah' for Allah's sake only?" He said, "Allah and His Apostle know better. We have seen him helping and advising hypocrites." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire for those who say, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah' for Allah's sake only." (Using translation from Bukhārī 425)
