The Virtue of Mosques, Their Sanctity and the Reward for Those Who Pray in Them
وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «مَنْ أَسْرَجَ فِي مَسْجِدٍ مِنْ مَسَاجِدِ اَللَّهِ سِرَاجاً لَمْ تَزَلِ اَلْمَلاَئِكَةُ وَ حَمَلَةُ اَلْعَرْشِ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لَهُ مَا دَامَ فِي ذَلِكَ اَلْمَسْجِدِ ضَوْءٌ مِنَ اَلسِّرَاجِ.
The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said: "Whoever lights a lamp in one of the mosques of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the angels and the bearers of the Throne will continue to seek forgiveness for them as long as there remains any light from that lamp in the mosque."
