(تَنْظِيفُ ٱلْمَسْجِدِ مِنَ ٱلْقَذَرِ عِبَادَةٌ)
(Cleaning the mosque from filth is an act of worship)
Hadith 709
وَعَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ أَعْمَالُ أُمَّتِي حَسَنُهَا وَسَيِّئُهَا فَوَجَدْتُ فِي محَاسِن أَعمالهَا الْأَذَى يماط عَن الطَّرِيق وَوَجَدْتُ فِي مَسَاوِئِ أَعْمَالِهَا النُّخَاعَةَ تَكُونُ فِي الْمَسْجِد لَا تدفن» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم
Abu Dharr reported God’s Messenger as saying, “The deeds of my people, good and bad, were presented before me, and I found the removal of something objectionable from the road among their good deeds, and mucus left unburied in the mosque among their evil deeds.” Muslim transmitted it.
