12. Chapter of Zay (Male)
١٢۔ بَابُ الزَّايِ
[Machine] Zaid bin Thabit said, "The mosque that was established on piety is the mosque of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." Urwah then said, "The mosque of the Prophet ﷺ is better than it, as the revelation was descended in the mosque of Quba."
زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ «الْمَسْجِدُ الَّذِي أُسِّسَ عَلَى التَّقْوَى مَسْجِدُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ» قَالَ عُرْوَةُ «مَسْجِدُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ خَيْرٌ مِنْهُ إِنَّمَا أُنْزِلَتْ فِي مَسْجِدِ قُبَاءَ»
[Machine] I read with the Prophet ﷺ from the Quranic chapter known as "An-Najm" and he did not prostrate.
«قَرَأْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِ النَّجْمِ فَلَمْ يَسْجُدْ»
[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated from Malik, from Yunus ibn Yusuf, from 'Ata' ibn Yasar, from Zaid ibn Thabit Al-Ansari that he found some young boys seeking refuge from a fox in a corner, so he chased them away from it. Malik said, "I only know that he said this about the sanctuary of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."
ثنا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يُوسُفَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ «أَنَّهُ وَجَدَ غِلْمَانًا قَدْ أَلْجَئُوا ثَعْلَبًا إِلَى زَاوِيَةٍ فَطَرَدَهُمْ عَنْهُ» وَقَالَ مَالِكٌ لَا أَعْلَمُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي حَرَمِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يُصْنَعُ هَذَا
