The Virtue of Mosques, Their Sanctity and the Reward for Those Who Pray in Them
وَ رُوِيَ: «أَنَّ فِي اَلتَّوْرَاةِ مَكْتُوباً أَنَّ بُيُوتِي فِي اَلْأَرْضِ اَلْمَسَاجِدُ فَطُوبَى لِعَبْدٍ تَطَهَّرَ فِي بَيْتِهِ ثُمَّ زَارَنِي فِي بَيْتِي أَلاَ إِنَّ عَلَى اَلْمَزُورِ كَرَامَةَ اَلزَّائِرِ أَلاَ بَشِّرِ اَلْمَشَّاءِينَ فِي اَلظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى اَلْمَسَاجِدِ بِالنُّورِ اَلسَّاطِعِ يَوْمَ اَلْقِيَامَةِ.
It is narrated "In the Torah, it is written that 'My houses on earth are the mosques. Glad tidings to the servant who purifies themselves in their home and then visits Me in My house. Surely, it is incumbent upon the host to honor their guest. Give glad tidings to those who walk in the darkness to the mosques of a radiant light on the Day of Judgment.'"
