Riyad as-Salihin: Book 8, Hadith 76

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: A blind man came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: “O Messenger of Allah! I have no one to guide me to the mosque.” He, therefore, sought his permission to perform Salat (prayer) in his house. He (ﷺ) granted him permission. When the man turned away, he called him back, and said, “Do you hear the Adhan (call to prayer)?” He replied in the affirmative. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then directed him to respond to it..

وعنه قال‏:‏ أتى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم رجل أعمي، فقال‏:‏ يا رسول الله، ليس لي قائد يقودني إلى المسجد، فسأل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أن يرخص له فيصلي في بيته، فرخص له، فلما ولى دعاه فقال له‏:‏ ‏”‏هل تسمع النداء بالصلاة‏؟‏ ‏”‏ قال نعم، قال‏:‏ ‏”‏فأجب‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
