Hadith 23044

حَدَّثَنَا عَبدُ اللَّهِ بنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، وَمُؤَمَّلٌ , قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلْقَمَةُ بنُ مَرْثَدٍ ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بنِ برَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبيهِ أَنَّ أَعْرَابيًّا قَالَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ : مَنْ دَعَا لِلْجَمَلِ الْأَحْمَرِ ؟ بعْدَ الْفَجْرِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا وَجَدْتَهُ ، لَا وَجَدْتَهُ ، لَا وَجَدْتَهُ ، إِنَّمَا بنِيَتْ هَذِهِ الْبيُوتُ ، وقَالَ مُؤَمَّلٌ : هَذِهِ الْمَسَاجِدُ لِمَا بنِيَتْ لَهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Bedouin came to the Prophet’s Mosque and began announcing that after the Fajr prayer, his red camel had gone missing and asked who could inform him about it. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said three times, “May you not find your camel! These houses (mosques) have only been built for the purpose for which they were built.”
