The Book of Pilgrimage

Abu Huraira and Sa'd reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

O Allah, bless the people of Medina in their mudd, the rest of the hadith being the same, and in It (this is also mentioned):" He wo intends to do harm to its people, Allah would efface him just as salt it dissolved in water."

Sufyan b. Abd Zuhair reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Syria will be conquered and some people will go out of Medina along with their families driving their camels. and Medina is better for them if they were to know it. Then Yemen will be conquered and some people will go out of Medina along with their families driving their camels, and Medina is better for them if they were to know it. Then Iraq will be conquered and some people will go out of it along with their families driving their camels, and Medina is better for them if they were to know it.

Sufyan b. Abu Zuhair heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) say:

Yemen will be conquered and some people will go away (to that country) driving their camels and carrying their families on them and those who are under their authority, while Medina is better for them if they were to know it. Then Syria will be conquered and some people will go away driving their camels along with them and carrying their families with them and those who are under their authority, while Medina is better for theni if they were to know it. Thtn lraq will be conquered and some people will go away (to that country) driving their camels and carrying their families with them and those who are under their authority. while Medina is better for them if they were to know it.

Salid b. Musayyib heard Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) say that 'Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said about Medina:

Its inhabitants will abandon it, whereas it is good for them and it will become the haunt of beasts and birds. (Imam Muslim said that Abu Safwan, one of the narrators whose name was 'Abdullah b. 'Abd al-Malik, was an orphan and I bn juraij took him under his care for ten years.)

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) say:

They (the residents of) Medina will abandon Medina whereas it is good for them and it will be haunted by beasts and birds, and two shepherds will come out from Muzainah intending (to go) towards Medina and tending their herd, and will find nothing but wilderness there until when they will reach the mountain path of Wada, they will fall down on their faces.

AbduUah b. Zaid al-Mazini (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

That which is between my house" and my pulpit is a garden from the gardens of Paradise.

Abdullah b. Zaid al-Ansari heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

That which exists between my pulpit and my house is a garden from the gardens of Paradise.

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

That which exists between my house and my pulpit is a garden from the gardens of Paradise, and my pulpit is upon my cistern.

Abu Humaid (Allah be pleased with him) reported:

We went out along with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in the expedition of Tabuk, and Abu Humaid further related: We proceeded until we reached the valley of Qura; and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: I am going forth, so he among you who wants to move fast with me may do so; and he who likes to go slowly may do so. We proceeded until Medina was within our sight, and he said: This is Tabah (another name of Medina); this is Uhud, the mountain which loves us and we love it.

Anas b. Malik (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Uhud is a mountain which loves us and which we love.

This hadith is narrated by Anas b. Malik (Allah be pleased with him) with another chain of transmitters (and the words are):

" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) cast a glance at Uhud and said: Uhud is a mountain which loves us and we love it."

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) narrated It directly from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ' (ﷺ) having said this:

A prayer in my mosque is a thousand times more excellent than a prayer in any other mosque, except Masjid al-Haram (Mosque of the Ka'ba).

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Prayer in my mosque is more excellent than a thousand prayers observed in other mosques except the Masjid al- Haram.

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported:

Prayer in the mosque of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) is more excellent than a thousand prayers in other mosques except the Masjid al-Haram, for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) is the last of the Messengers, and his mosque is the last of the mosques. Abu Salama and Abu Abdullah (two of the narrators in this chain of narrations said: We had no doubt that what Abu Haraira (Allah be pleased with him) had said was from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), and so we did not like to get an attestation from Abu Huraira about this hadith until Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) died. We discussed it (the issue of getting attestation from Abu Huraira) amongst ourselves and blamed one another as to why we did not talk about it to Abu Huraira regarding it so that he could attribute its transmission to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in case he had heard It from him. While we were discussing it as we sat with 'Abdullah b. Ibrahlm b. Qariz; we made a mention of this hadith, and our omission (in getting its attestation) about its direct transmission by Abu Huraira from him (the Holy Proohet) ; thereupon Abdullah b. Ibrahim said to us: I bear witness to the fact that I heard Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) say that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: I am the last of the Messengers and my mosque is the last of the mosques.

Yahya b. Sa'id (Allah be pleased with him) reported:

I said to Abu Salih: Did you hear Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) making a mention of the excellence of prayer in the mosque of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)? He said: No (I did not hear directly from Abu Huraira), but I heard Abdullah b. Ibrahlm b. Qariz; say that' he had heard from Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had said: Prayer in this mosque of mine is better than a thousand prayers. or. is like one thousand prayers observed in other mosques besides It, except that it be in al-Masjid al-Haram.

This hadith has been narrated by Yabya b. Sa'id with the same chain of transmitters.

Ibn 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Prayer in this mosque of mine is better than a thousand prayers (observed in other mosque.) besides it, except that of Masjid al-Haram.

A hadith like this has been narrated on the authority of Ubaidullah with the same chain of transmitters.

Ibn 'Umar reported:

I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying like this.

Ibn Umar narrated from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) a hadlth like this.
