Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ بَنِي سَلِمَةَ، أَرَادُوا أَنْ يَتَحَوَّلُوا مِنْ دِيَارِهِمْ إِلَى قُرْبِ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَكَرِهَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنْ يُعْرَى الْمَسْجِدُ، فَقَالَ: " يَا بَنِي سَلِمَةَ، أَلَا تَحْتَسِبُونَ آثَارَكُمْ؟ " فَأَقَامُوا، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ قَالَ أَبِي: " أَخْطَأَ فِيهِ يَحْيَى بْنُ، ، سَعِيدٍ، وَإِنَّمَا هُوَ: أَنْ تَعْرَى الْمَدِينَةُ، (١) فَقَالَ يَحْيَى: الْمَسْجِدَ. وَضَرَبَ عَلَيْهِ أَبِي هَاهُنَا، وَقَدْ حَدَّثَنَا بِهِ فِي كِتَابِ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Banu Salamah once intended to move from their old residence and settle near the mosque. When the Prophet (ﷺ) learned of this, he did not like the idea of Madinah becoming empty. Therefore, he said, "O Banu Salamah! Do you not wish to attain the reward for the steps you take towards the mosque?"
