English translation

448. Ibn 'Abbās reported that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "I have not been commanded to extend (the structure of) the Masājid." Ibn 'Abbās (then) said: "Of a surety you will decorate it, just like the Jews and Christians decorated (their temples).” (Ḍāʿif)

448 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ بْنِ سُفْيَانَ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي فَزَارَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْأَصَمِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا أُمِرْتُ بِتَشْيِيدِ الْمَسَاجِدِ»، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: لَتُزَخْرِفُنَّهَا كَمَا زَخْرَفَتِ الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى
