حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ وَهُوَ أَبُو سِنَانٍ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: مَنْ دَعَا لِلْجَمَلِ الْأَحْمَرِ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَا وَجَدْتَ، إِنَّمَا بُنِيَتِ الْمَسَاجِدُ لِمَا بُنِيَتْ لَهُ " (٢)،

It is narrated from Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Bedouin came to the Prophet’s Mosque and began announcing that after the Fajr prayer, his red camel had gone missing and asked who could inform him about it. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said three times, “May you not find your camel! These houses (mosques) have only been built for the purpose for which they were built.”
