٢٠۔ كتاب فضل الصلاة فى مسجد مكة والمدينة
I heard Abu Said saying four words. He said, "I heard the Prophet ﷺ (saying the following narrative)." He had participated in twelve holy battles with the Prophet.
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ ؓ أَرْبَعًا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَكَانَ غَزَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثِنْتَىْ عَشْرَةَ غَزْوَةً ح
The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not set out on a journey except for three Mosques i.e. Al-Masjid-AI-Haram, the Mosque of Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and the Mosque of Al-Aqsa, (Mosque of Jerusalem)."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ تُشَدُّ الرِّحَالُ إِلاَّ إِلَى ثَلاَثَةِ مَسَاجِدَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَمَسْجِدِ الرَّسُولِ ﷺ وَمَسْجِدِ الأَقْصَى
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "One prayer in my Mosque is better than one thousand prayers in any other mosque except in al-Masjid aI-Ḥarām."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ صَلاَةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِي هَذَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ صَلاَةٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ إِلاَّ الْمَسْجِدَ الْحَرَامَ
