Chapter on the Virtue of Mosques and Prayer Within Them, and the Virtue of Congregational Prayer and Its Rulings

Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub from Ya'qub ibn Yazid from Ibn Abi Umayr from Ibrahim ibn Abd al-Hamid from Sa’ad al-Iskaf from Ziyad ibn Isa from Abu al-Jarud from al-Asbagh from Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام, peace be upon him: Imam Ali عليه السلام used to say: “Whoever frequents the mosque will attain one of eight things; a brother benefitted in Allah سبحانه وتعالى, or newly acquired knowledge, or a decisive verse, or hears a word that guides him to guidance, or a mercy awaited, or a word that repels him from destruction, or he leaves a sin out of fear, or out of shame.”
