حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍأَنَّ عُثْمَانَ أَرَادَ
أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَبْنِيَ مَسْجِدَ الْمَدِينَةِ، فَكَرِهَ النَّاسُ ذَاكَ، وَأَحَبُّوا أَنْ يَدَعُوهُ عَلَى هَيْئَتِهِ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَنْ بَنَى مَسْجِدًا لِلهِ بَنَى اللهُ لَهُ بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِثْلَهُ.
