Narrated Mahmud bin Rabi` Al-Ansari:

`Itban bin Malik used to lead his people (tribe) in prayer and was a blind man, he said to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ! At times it is dark and flood water is flowing (in the valley) and I am blind man, so please pray at a place in my house so that I can take it as a Musalla (praying place)." So Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) went to his house and said, "Where do you like me to pray?" 'Itban pointed to a place in his house and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , offered the prayer there.
