[Machine] "We wanted to move to the mosque, and the areas surrounding the mosque were vacant. So, the Prophet ﷺ was informed about it, and he came to our house and said, 'O children of Salimah, I have been informed that you want to move to the mosque.' They replied, 'O Messenger of Allah, the mosque and its surroundings are far from us and vacant.' He said, 'O children of Salimah, your houses are your houses, and your traces will be recorded.' We did not wish to be in the presence of the mosque when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said what he said."  

ابن حبّان:٢٠٤٢ – أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

أَرَدْنَا النُّقْلَةَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَالْبِقَاعُ حَوْلَ الْمَسْجِدِ خَالِيَةٌ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَتَانَا فِي دَارِنَا فَقَالَ «يَا بَنِي سَلِمَةَ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّكُمْ تُرِيدُونَ النُّقْلَةَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بَعُدَ عَلَيْنَا الْمَسْجِدُ وَالْبِقَاعُ حَوْلَهُ خَالِيَةٌ فَقَالَ «يَا بَنِي سَلِمَةَ دِيَارَكُمْ دِيَارَكُمْ تُكْتَبْ آثَارُكُمْ» قَالَ فَمَا وَدِدْنَا أَنَّا بِحَضْرَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ لَمَّا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا قَالَ

There were some plots vacant around the mosque. Banu Salama decided to shift (to this land) and come near the mosque. This (news) reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said to them (Banu Salama): I have received (information) that you intend to shift near the mosque. They said: Yes, Messenger of Allah, we have taken this decision. Upon this he (the Holy Prophet) said: O Banu Salama, live in your houses, for your steps are recorded; live in your houses, for your steps are recorded.
