حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ، قَالَ: نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ الْأَزْهَرِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ قَالَ: نَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْأَزْرَقُ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ. عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
مَنْ بَنَى لِلهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مَسْجِدًا كَمَفْحَصِ قَطَاةٍ بَنَى اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ
