حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: كَانَ مَوْضِعُ مَسْجِدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِبَنِي النَّجَّارِ، وَكَانَ فِيهِ نَخْلٌ وَحَرْثٌ وَقُبُورٌ مِنْ قُبُورِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " ثَامِنُونِي " فَقَالُوا: لَا نَبْتَغِي بِهِ ثَمَنًا إِلَّا عِنْدَ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ. فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالنَّخْلِ فَقُطِعَ، وَبِالْحَرْثِ فَأُفْسِدَ، وَبِالْقُبُورِ فَنُبِشَتْ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ يُصَلِّي، ، فِي مَرَابِضِ الْغَنَمِ، حَيْثُ أَدْرَكَتْهُ الصَّلَاةُ (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the place of Masjid Nabawi (peace be upon him) originally belonged to Banu Najjar; there used to be a tree, a field, and some graves of polytheists. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to Banu Najjar, "Settle its price with me." They replied, "We will not take its price." Thus, by the order of the Prophet (peace be upon him), the trees were cut down, the field was cleared, and the graves were dug up. And before the construction of Masjid Nabawi, whenever the time for prayer came, the Prophet (peace be upon him) would pray wherever he was, and he would also pray in the sheep pens.
