عِيسَى بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْغَافِقِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا
ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، عَنْ
دَاوُدَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ
عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ ، عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ
امْرَأَةِ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ ، أَنَّهَا جَاءَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، إِنِّي أُحِبُّ الصَّلاةَ مَعَكَ ، فَقَالَ : " قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكِ تُحِبِّينَ الصَّلاةَ مَعِي ، وَصَلاتُكِ فِي بَيْتِكِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلاتِكِ فِي حُجْرَتِكِ ، وَصَلاتُكِ فِي حُجْرَتِكِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلاتِكِ فِي دَارِكِ ، وَصَلاتُكِ فِي دَارِكِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلاتِكِ فِي مَسْجِدِ قَوْمِكِ ، وَصَلاتُكِ فِي مَسْجِدِ قَوْمِكِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلاتِكِ فِي مَسْجِدِي " . فَأَمَرَتْ ، فَبُنِيَ لَهَا مَسْجِدٌ فِي أَقْصَى شَيْءٍ مِنْ بَيْتِهَا وَأَظْلَمِهِ ، فَكَانَتْ تُصَلِّي فِيهِ حَتَّى لَقِيَتِ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ
Hazrat Abdullah bin Suwaid Ansari narrates from his paternal aunt, who was the respected wife of Sayyiduna Abu Humayd Al-Sa'idi (may Allah be pleased with him), that she presented herself before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I like to perform prayer (in congregation) with you." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I know that you like to perform prayer (in congregation) with me, although your prayer in your small room is better than your prayer in your large room (or outer room), and your prayer in your large room is better than your prayer in your courtyard, and your prayer in your courtyard is better than your prayer in your tribe's mosque, and your prayer in your tribe's mosque is better than your prayer in my mosque. Therefore, upon their instruction, a mosque was made for her in the farthest and darkest part of her house, so she used to pray in that mosque until she met Allah, i.e., passed away."
