عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ:
سُئِلَ عَطَاءٌ: عَنِ الْأَعْمَى أَيَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ ؟ فَقَالَ: مَا لَهُ إِذَا كَانَ أَفْقَهَهُمْ ؟ " فَقَالَ إِنْسَانٌ لِعَطَاءٍ: إِلَّا أَنْ يُخْطِئَ الْقِبْلَةَ ؟ قَالَ: قَالَ عَطَاءٌ: " فَإِنْ أَخْطَأَ فَلْيُعَدِّلُوهُ، فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ إِذَا كَانَ أَفْقَهَهُمْ

✧ ʿAṭāʾ was asked about the blind man: May he lead the people in prayer? He said: "What is wrong with it if he is the most learned in jurisprudence among them?" A man said to ʿAṭāʾ: "Unless he errs in the qiblah?" He said: ʿAṭāʾ said: "If he errs, they should straighten him. He may lead them if he is the most learned in jurisprudence among them."
