The Virtue of Mosques, Their Sanctity and the Reward for Those Who Pray in Them
«وَ إِنَّ اَللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وتَعَالَى لَيُرِيدُ عَذَابَ أَهْلِ اَلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعاً حَتَّى لاَ يُحَاشِيَ مِنْهُمْ أَحَداً فَإِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَى اَلشِّيبِ نَاقِلِي أَقْدَامِهِمْ إِلَى اَلصَّلَوَاتِ وَ اَلْوِلْدَانِ يَتَعَلَّمُونَ اَلْقُرْآنَ رَحِمَهُمُ اَللَّهُ فَأَخَّرَ ذَلِكَ عَنْهُمْ. ومن أراد دخول المسجد فليدخل على سكون ووقار فإن المساجد بيوت الله وأحب البقاع إليه، وأحبهم إلى الله عز وجل [رجلا] أولهم دخولا وآخرهم خروجا.
"And indeed, Allah سبحانه وتعالى, Blessed and Exalted, intends to bring punishment upon all the people of the earth without exception. But when He looks at the elderly, who move their feet to the prayers and the children learning the Qur'an, He has mercy on them and withholds that punishment”.
