Hadith 1361

عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ بُرَيْدَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا قَالَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ: مَنْ دَعَا لِلْجَمَلِ الْأَحْمَرِ بَعْدَ الْفَجْرِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((لَا وَجَدْتَّهُ لَا وَجَدْتَّهُ، إِنَّمَا بُنِيَتْ هَٰذِهِ الْبُيُوتُ قَالَ مُوَمِّلٌ هَٰذِهِ الْمَسَاجِدُ لِمَا بُنِيَتْ لَهُ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Buraidah Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Bedouin announced in the mosque after Fajr: "Who has called the red camel?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You shall not find it, you shall not find it. These mosques are only for the purposes for which they have been built."
