Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) report that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The area between my grave and my pulpit is one of the gardens of Paradise, and one prayer offered in my mosque is more excellent than a thousand prayers offered anywhere else, except that the ruling for al-Masjid al-Haram is different."
(Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: The hadith narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) is mentioned in full in the "Sahih", and the hadith narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was recorded by Imam al-Tirmidhi, but he did not mention the prayer.
Imam al-Bazzar recorded this. Its chain contains a narrator, Salamah bin Wardan, who is da'if (weak).
