Hadith 38
۞
2. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Abī Khalaf Al-Qummi Al-Ash’ari, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Mūsā ibn Qāsim Al-Bajali, from someone who narrated to him, from Murāzim, who said
I asked Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) about praying in the Mosque of the Messenger of Allāh (s.a.a.w.). Imam (a.s.) replied: The Messenger of Allāh (s.a.a.w.) has said: One Salāt in my mosque is equal to one thousand prayers elsewhere, and one Salāt in MASJID AL-ḤARĀM is equal to one thousand prayers in my mosque. Then Imam (a.s.) continued: Verily Allāh has given preference to Makkah over other cities, and He has given preference to (specific) areas (of Makkah) over other areas in it by saying, “Take for yourselves a place of prayer on the standing-place of Ibrāhīm” (2:125). Allāh has also given preference to some people over others, and in His Book He has ordered people to follow them and to love them.
2 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي خَلَفٍ الْقُمِّيِّ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ الْبَجَلِيِّ عَمَّنْ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ مُرَازِمٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ فِي مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ (ص) فَقَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (ص) صَلَاةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِي تَعْدِلُ أَلْفَ صَلَاةٍ فِي غَيْرِهِ وَ صَلَاةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامَ تَعْدِلُ أَلْفَ صَلَاةٍ فِي مَسْجِدِي ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ فَضَّلَ مَكَّةَ وَ جَعَلَ بَعْضَهَا أَفْضَلَ مِنْ بَعْضٍ فَقَالَ وَ اتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَقامِ إِبْراهِيمَ مُصَلًّى وَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ فَضَّلَ أَقْوَاماً وَ أَمَرَ بِاتِّبَاعِهِمْ وَ أَمَرَ بِمَوَدَّتِهِمْ فِي الْكِتَابِ
