Musnad Abi Ya'la 2817 — we went out with him towards the boundaries
حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ مُكْرَمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ رُسْتُمَ ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : خَرَجْنَا مَعَهُ إِلَى الْحَرَمِ ، فَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ ، فَقَالَ : أَلَا تَنْزِلُوا نُصَلِّي ؟ فَقُلْتُ : لَوْ تَقَدَّمْتَ إِلَى هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَقَالَ : أَيُّ مَسْجِدٍ ؟ قِيلَ : مَسْجِدُ بَنِي فُلَانٍ ، فَفَزِعَ ، وَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : يَأْتِي عَلَى أُمَّتِي زَمَانٌ يَتَبَاهَوْنَ بِالْمَسَاجِدِ وَلَا يَعْمُرُونَهَا إِلَّا قَلِيلًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) (Abu Qilabah (may Allah have mercy on him) relates) that we went out with him towards the boundaries of the Haram. When the time of prayer came, Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Will you not dismount (from the mounts), so that we may pray?" I said: "If only you would go a little further on to this mosque." He asked: "Which mosque?" It was said: "The mosque of such-and-such a tribe." On hearing this he was startled and said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'A time will come upon my nation when people will boast to one another about mosques (their outward splendour and buildings), while they will fill them (with remembrance and worship) only very little.'"
