It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna ‘Itban (may Allah be pleased with him) developed an ailment in his eye. He sent a message to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the difficulty he was facing and said:“O Messenger of Allah! Please come and pray at a place in my house so that I may make it my place of prayer.”The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and, according to Allah’s will, a few companions came. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up for prayer and the companions became engaged in conversation. Then they began to mention the troubles caused by the hypocrites and considered Malik bin Dukhshum to be a major cause of it. Meanwhile, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) finished and said:“Does he not bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah?”A man replied:“Yes, he does bear witness to this, but there is no belief in his heart according to it.”The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Whoever bears witness that Allah alone is the true God and I am His Messenger, then the Fire will never consume him, or (he said) he will never enter the Fire.”
