2401. Abū Hurairah (narrated from) the Prophet ﷺ who said: "Allāh, Mighty and Sublime is He, said: 'For whomever I take his sight, and he is patient and seeking a reward, I shall not be satisfied with any reward for him less than Paradise.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) There is a narration on this topic from 'Irbāḍ bin Sāriyah. [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ.
٢٤٠١ - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: يَقُولُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: «مَنْ أَذْهَبْتُ حَبِيبَتَيْهِ فَصَبَرَ وَاحْتَسَبَ» لَمْ أَرْضَ لَهُ ثَوَابًا دُونَ الْجَنَّةِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عِرْبَاضِ بْنِ سَارِيَةَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

For a man eyes are the most precious of all treasures of the world. For a man shorn of the eyesight, the whole world becomes as dark as night, and he becomes dependent on others for all his needs. So, if a man bears this affliction with patience and seeks the pleasure of Allāh under all circumstances, his reward is nothing less than Paradise.
