Muwatta Malik #421
Shortening the Prayer
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Mahmud ibn
Rabi al-Ansari that Utban ibn Malik, who was a blind man, used to lead
his people in prayer, and he said to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, "Sometimes it is dark and rainy and
there is a lot of water around outside, and I am a man who has lost
his sight. Messenger of Allah, pray in a certain place in my house so
that I can take it as a place to pray." The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, came to him and said, "Where
would you like me to pray?" He indicated a place to him and the
Messengerof Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, prayed
there.
