It is related from Abú Hurairah that he said, 'A blind man came to the Prophet and said, "O Apostle of God, I have no guide to lead me to the mosque." And he begged of the Apostle of God that a concession might be made for him, so that he might pray in his house. So the Apostle of God made a concession for him; and when he turned his back, the Apostle called him and said, "Dost thou hear the call to prayer?" He replied, "Yes." He said, "Then do thou answer it."'—Muslim.
It is related from Ibn ʿOmar that, 'He made the call to prayer on a cold and windy night. Then he said, "Beware! pray in your houses." After that he said, "Verily the Apostle of God used to order the one who called to prayers, when it was a cold and rainy night, to say 'Beware! pray in your houses.'"'—Muslim, Al Bukhárí.
It is related from Ibn ʿOmar that, 'The Apostle of God said, "When the wife of any one of you asks permission to go to the mosque, then let him not forbid her."'—Muslim, Al Bukhárí.
It is related from Ibn ʿOmar that, 'The Apostle of God said, "Do not forbid your wives the mosques, but their houses are better for them."'—Abú Dáud.
It is related from Abú Hurairah that he said, 'Verily I heard my beloved Abúʾl-Qásim say, "The prayer of that woman will not be accepted who comes perfumed to the mosque, until she washes herself with the washing prescribed for impurity." —Abú Dáud.
It is related from Abúʾl-Dardái that, 'The Apostle of God said, "There are no three persons in a village or desert who do not perform the prayers amongst themselves, but Satan prevails over them. Pray in an assembly, for the wolf only eats the one that has strayed from the flock."'—Aḥmad, Abú Dáud, An Nasái.
It is related from Abú Hurairah that, 'The Prophet said, "If it were not that there were women and children in the houses, I would have performed the evening prayers and commanded my young men to burn with fire whatever was in the houses (of those who do not attend prayers in the mosque.)"'—Aḥmad.
