' Itbân bin Mâlik who was one of the companions of Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) and one of the who took part in the battle of Badr said: I came to Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) and said: " 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 Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ)! I wish you would come to my house and offer (prayer) in it so that I could take that place as a Musalla [appointed place for (prayers)]. Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If Allâh will, I will do so." " ' Itbân said: Next day after the sun rose high, Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr came and Allah's Messenger (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 offer (prayer)?" I pointed to a place in my house. So Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) stood there and said, Allâhu Akbar, and we all got up and aligned behind him and offered a two-Rak'at prayer and ended it with Taslîm. We requested him to stay for a meal called Khazîra which we had prepared for him. Many members of our family gathered in the house and one of them said, "Where is Mâlik bin Ad-Dukhaishin or Ibn Ad-Dhukhshun?" One of them replied, "He is a hypocrite and does not love Allâh and His Messenger (ﷺ) ". Hearing that, Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) said, Do not say so. Haven't you seen that he said, La ilâha ill-Allâh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh) for Allâh's sake only?" He said, "Allâh and His Messenger (ﷺ) know better. We have seen him helping and advising hypocrites." Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Allâh has forbidden the (Hell) Fire for those who say, La ilâha ill-Allâh (none the right to be worshipped but Allâh) for Allâh's sake only. [1:417-0.B.]
