وَبِهِ، ثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ:
تَذَاكَرْنَا وَنَحْنُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، أَيُّمَا أَفْضَلُ، مَسْجِدُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْ بَيْتُ الْمَقْدِسِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: صَلَاةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِي هَذَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ أَرْبَعِ صَلَوَاتٍ فِيهِ، وَلَنِعْمَ الْمُصَلَّى هُوَ، وَلَيُوشِكَنَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِلرَّجُلِ مِثْلُ سِيَةِ قَوْسِهِ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، حَيْثُ يَرَى مِنْهُ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا جَمِيعًا

✧ We reminded each other while we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: which is more virtuous, the Mosque of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ or the Bayt al-Maqdis? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'A prayer in this mosque of mine is better than four prayers there, and it is an excellent place of prayer. It is near that a man will have the like of the tip of his bow's curve of land, from where he can see the Bayt al-Maqdis, better for him than the entire world.'
