Q
What can be learned about the Prophet’s (ﷺ) practice of leading prayers in different locations?
A
I remember Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and also the mouthful of water which he took from a bucket in our house
and ejected (on me). I heard from `Itban bin Malik Al-Ansari, who was one from Bani Salim, saying,
“I used to lead my tribe of Bani Salim in prayer. Once I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said to him, ‘I have
weak eyesight and at times the rainwater flood intervenes between me and the mosque of my tribe and
I wish that you would come to my house and pray at some place so that I could take that place as a
place for praying (mosque). He said, “Allah willing, I shall do that.” Next day Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) along
with Abu Bakr, came to my house after the sun had risen high and he asked permission to enter. I gave
him permission, but he didn’t sit till he said to me, “Where do you want me to pray in your house?” I
pointed to a place in the house where I wanted him to pray. So he stood up for the prayer and we
aligned behind him. He completed the prayer with Taslim and we did the same simultaneously.”
