English translation

319. It has been related that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever builds a Masjid for (the sake of) Allāh, be it small or large, then Allāh will build a house for him in Paradise.” (Da'if) Qutaibah bin Sa'eed narrated that to us (saying): “Nūḥ bin Qais narrated that to us: from ‘Abdur-Raḥmān the freed slave of Qais, from Ziyād Al-Numairī, from Anas, from the Prophet ﷺ.” Mahmūd bin Labīd (One of the narrators in no. 318.) saw the Prophet ﷺ, and Mahmūd bin Ar-Rabī saw the Prophet ﷺ. They were both small boys in Al-Madīnah.

Arabic text

٣١٩ - وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ بَنَى لِلهِ مَسْجِدًا - صَغِيرًا كَانَ أَوْ كَبِيرًا - بَنَى اللهُ لَهُ بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ»، حَدَّثَنَا بِذَلِكَ ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌نُوحُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَوْلَى قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ ‌زِيَادٍ النُّمَيْرِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهَذَا.

Commentary

The mosques in the world are the houses of Allāh, the centre of the spread of His religion and of preaching, an explicit place for His remembrance, and every deed will be compensated in the Hereafter accordingly; therefore the construction of a mosque is a deed of great fortune; the more sincerity there is in a deed the more marvellous the house will be in Paradise. Participating in the construction of a mosque is also a form of it.
