حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى الْجَمَلِ الْأَحْمَرِ ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا وَجَدْتَهُ ، إِنَّمَا بُنِيَتِ الْمَسَاجِدُ لِمَا بُنِيَتْ لَهُ " .
´It was narrated from Sulaiman bin Burdah that his father said:` "The Messenger of Allah performed prayer, then a man said: 'Who was looking for the red camel?' The Prophet said: 'May you not find it! The mosques were built for that for which they were built.'"

Brief Explanation
1؎: Mosques have been built for the worship of Allah Ta'ala, for His remembrance, for the recitation of the Qur'an, for exhortation, and for the teaching of the Qur'an and Hadith. The scholars of truth have always imparted religious knowledge in the mosque, and sometimes discussion is also necessary in teaching. Hafiz Ibn Hajar has said that conducting a marriage contract (nikah) in the mosque is permissible; rather, it is Sunnah.
