[Machine] "Where did you come from? And I said, from Mount Tur. He said, if I had met you before you left for it, I would not have let you go there. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Do not undertake a journey except to three mosques: the Sacred Mosque, my mosque, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque or the Mosque of Elijah.'"  

أحمد:٢٣٨٤٨ – قَرَأْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَالِكٌ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْهَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَلَقِيتُ بَصْرَةَ بْنَ أَبِي بَصْرَةَ الْغِفَارِيَّ قَالَ

مِنْ أَيْنَ أَقْبَلْتَ؟ فَقُلْتُ مِنَ الطُّورِ فَقَالَ أَمَا لَوْ أَدْرَكْتُكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِ مَا خَرَجْتَ إِلَيْهِ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا تُعْمَلُ الْمَطِيُّ إِلَّا إِلَى ثَلَاثَةِ مَسَاجِدَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَإِلَى مَسْجِدِي وَإِلَى مَسْجِدِ إِيلِيَاءَ أَوْ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ يَشُكُّ

ahmad:27230 – Yaʿqūb from my father > Ibn Isḥāq > Yazīd b. Abū Ḥabīb > Marthad b. ʿAbdullāh al-Yazanī > Abū Baṣrah al-Ghifārī

[Machine] I met Abu Hurairah while he was walking towards the Mosque of Mount Sinai (Masjid al-Tour) to pray in it. So, I said to him, "If I had met you before you left, you wouldn't have left." He asked, "Why?" I replied, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Do not travel except to three mosques: the Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram), the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and my Mosque (Masjid al-Nabawi).' "  

أحمد:٢٧٢٣٠ – حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ مَرْثَدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْيَزَنِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي بَصْرَةَ الْغِفَارِيِّ قَالَ

لَقِيتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ وَهُوَ يَسِيرُ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ الطُّورِ لِيُصَلِّيَ فِيهِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ لَوْ أَدْرَكْتُكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَرْتَحِلَ مَا ارْتَحَلْتَ قَالَ فَقَالَ وَلِمَ؟ قَالَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا تُشَدُّ الرِّحَالُ إِلَّا إِلَى ثَلَاثَةِ مَسَاجِدَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَالْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى وَمَسْجِدِي  

ahmad:23850 – Ḥusayn b. Muḥammad > Shaybān > ʿAbd al-Malik > ʿUmar b. ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. al-Ḥārith b. Hishām

[Machine] He said: I met Abu Basrah al-Ghifari and he came from Mount Sinai. He said: From where did you come? He said: From Mount Sinai, where I prayed. Abu Basrah said: If only I had met you before you left for it, I would not have gone. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: Do not set out on a journey except to three mosques - the Sacred Mosque, this mosque (in Medina), and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.  

أحمد:٢٣٨٥٠ – حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ

ibnhibban:2772b – Abū Hurayrah Falaqīt Baṣrah b. Abū Baṣrah al-Ghifārī > from Ayn Aqbalt > from al-Ṭūr > Law Adraktuk Qabl

[Machine] Where did you come from? I said I came from Mount Tur. He said, "If I had met you before you went out to it, I would not have gone out to it. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'The pilgrimage is not to be done except to three mosques: the Sacred Mosque, this Mosque of mine, and the Mosque of Elijah or the Mosque of Jerusalem.'" He doubted which of the two.

مِنْ أَيْنَ أَقْبَلْتَ؟ فَقُلْتُ مِنَ الطُّورِ فَقَالَ لَوْ أَدْرَكْتُكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِ مَا خَرَجْتَ إِلَيْهِ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا تُعْمَلُ * الْمَطِيُّ إِلَّا إِلَى ثَلَاثَةِ مَسَاجِدَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَإِلَى مَسْجِدِي هَذَا وَإِلَى مَسْجِدِ إِيلِيَاءَ أَوْ مَسْجِدِ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ» شَكَّ أَيُّهُمَا
