حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ
كَانَ مَوْضِعُ مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لِبَنِي النَّجَّارِ، وَكَانَ فِيهِ حَرْثٌ وَنَخْلٌ وَقُبُورُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، فَقَالَ: يَا بَنِي النَّجَّارِ ثَامِنُونِي بِهِ، فَقَالُوا: لَا نَبْتَغِي بِهِ ثَمَنًا إِلَّا عِنْدَ اللهِ، قَالَ: فَقَطَعَ النَّخْلَ وَسَوَّى الْحَرْثَ وَنَبَشَ قُبُورَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، قَالَ: وَكَانَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَبْنِيَ الْمَسْجِدَ يُصَلِّي حَيْثُ أَدْرَكَتْهُ الصَّلَاةُ، وَفِي مَرَابِضِ الْغَنَمِ، وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَهُمْ يَنْقُلُونَ الصَّخْرَ لِبِنَاءِ الْمَسْجِدِ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ الْخَيْرَ خَيْرُ الْآخِرَهْ فَاغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَهْ

✧ The site of the mosque of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ belonged to the Banu al-Najjar. It contained farmland, palm trees, and the graves of the polytheists. He said: "O Banu al-Najjar, sell it to me." They said: "We will seek no price for it except from Allah." He said: So he cut down the palm trees, leveled the farmland, and dug up the graves of the polytheists. He said: Before the mosque was built, the Prophet of Allah ﷺ used to pray wherever the prayer overtook him, even in sheep pens. And while they were carrying rocks to build the mosque, the Prophet ﷺ used to say: "O Allah, the only good is the good of the Hereafter, so forgive the Ansar and the Muhajirun."
