English translation

[7471] 44 - (...) It was narrated from Maḥmūd bin Labīd that 'Uthmān bin 'Affān wanted to rebuild the Masjid but the people disliked that, and they wanted to leave it as it was. He said: "I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'Whoever builds a Masjid for the sake of Allāh, Allāh will build something similar for him in Paradise.'"

Arabic text

44 - (533) حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، كِلَاهُمَا عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ، قَالَ: ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍ، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ، أَرَادَ بِنَاءَ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَكَرِهَ النَّاسُ ذَلِكَ، وَأَحَبُّوا أَنْ يَدَعَهُ عَلَى هَيْئَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: «مَنْ بَنَى مَسْجِدًا لِلَّهِ، بَنَى اللهُ لَهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِثْلَهُ»،
