وعن عبد الله- وقيل‏:‏ عمرو بن قيس المعروف بابن أم مكتوم المؤذن رضي الله عنه أنه قال‏:‏ يا رسول الله إن المدينة كثيرة الهوام والسباع‏.‏ فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏:‏ ‏"‏تسمع حي على الصلاة، حي على الفلاح، فحيهلا‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو داود بإسناد حسن‏.‏ (12)

I said to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): "There are many poisonous insects and wild beasts in Al-Madinah, and I am blind. Please grant me permission to perform Salat at home." He (ﷺ) enquired whether he could hear the call: Hayya 'alas-Salah; Hayya 'alal-Falah (Come to the prayer, come to the salvation). When he replied in affirmative, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) directed him to come (to mosque) for prayer."[Abu Dawud].
