وعن أم سلمة رضي الله عنها

قالت: كنت عند رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وعنده ميمونة، فأقبل ابن أم مكتوم، وذلك بعد أن أُمرنا بالحجاب فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: «احتجبا منه«فقلنا: يا رسول الله إلىس هو أعمى لا يبصرنا، ولا يعرفنا؟ فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: «أفعمياوان أنتما ألستما تبصرانه؟!»

I was with the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) along with Maimunah (radiyallahu anha) when Ibn Umm Maktum (radiyallahu anhu) (who was blind) came to visit him. (This incident took place after the order of Hijab).

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) told us to hide ourselves from him (i.e., observe Hijab). We said: “O Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), he is blind and is unable to see us, nor does he know us.” He replied; “Are you also blind and unable to see him?”.
