ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْإِمَامِ إِعْطَاءُ رَعِيَّتِهِ مَا يَأْمَلُونَهُ مِنَ الْأَسْبَابِ الَّتِي بِهَا يَتَبَرَّكُونَ مِنْ نَاحِيَتِهِ
[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ looking at me in my face with a hanging bucket in our house. Mahmud said, Abu Usamah narrated to me, he said, I said, "O Messenger of Allah, my vision has become weak, and when the rain intensifies, the valley overflows and this hinders me from going to the mosque. If I prayed at home in a designated spot, would it be acceptable?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Yes, it would." So the next day the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me with Abu Bakr and they sought permission, so I granted it to them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not sit until he said, "Where would you like me to pray in your house?" So I pointed him to a spot and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ walked ahead and we lined up behind him. He prayed two units of prayer and we confined the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to a small chamber that we made for him.
عَقَلْتُ مَجَّةً مَجَّهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي وَجْهِي مِنْ دَلْوٍ مُعَلَّقَةٍ فِي دَارِنَا قَالَ مَحْمُودٌ فَحَدَّثَنِي عِتْبَانُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ بَصَرِي قَدْ سَاءَ وَإِنَّ الْأَمْطَارَ إِذَا اشْتَدَّتْ سَالَ الْوَادِي فَحَالَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ الصَّلَاةِ فِي مَسْجِدِ قَوْمِي فَلَوْ صَلَّيْتُ فِي مَنْزِلِي مَكَانًا أَتَّخِذُهُ مُصَلًّى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «نَعَمْ» قَالَ فَغَدَا عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَاسْتَأْذَنَا فَأَذِنْتُ لَهُمَا قَالَ فَمَا جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى قَالَ «أَيْنَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي مَنْزِلِكَ؟ » فَأَشَرْتُ لَهُ إِلَى نَاحِيَةٍ فَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَصَفَفْنَا خَلْفَهُ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَحَبَسْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى خَزِيرَةٍ صَنَعْنَاهَا لَهُ
