وَقَالَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عَتِيقٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ ؓ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ يَقُولُ:
صَلَاةٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ مِائَةِ أَلْفِ صَلَاةٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ مِنَ الْمَسَاجِدِ
