حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّاسٌ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنِ الْعَلاءِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ حَرَامِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الصَّلاةِ فِي بَيْتِي وَالصَّلاةِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ قَالَ قَدْ تَرَى مَا أَقْرَبَ بَيْتِي مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ فَلأَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي بَيْتِي أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ إِلا أَنْ تَكُونَ صَلاةً مَكْتُوبَةً
