"عن نافع أن عمر زاد في المسجد من الأُسْطُوَانَةِ إلي الْمَقْصُورَةِ, وَقَالَ: لَوْلَا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَزِيدَ فِي مَسْجِدِنَا، مَا زِدْتُ فِيهِ".

عَنْ نَافِعٍأَنَّ عُمَرَ زَادَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ مِنَ الْأُسْطُوَانَةِ إِلَى الْمَقْصُورَةِ وَزَادَ عُثْمَانُ وَقَالَ عُمَرُ لَوْلا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ نَبْغِي نَزِيدُ فِي مَسْجِدِنَا مَا زِدْتُ فِيهِ
