حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍ:، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَبْنِيَ مَسْجِدَ الْمَدِينَةِ، فَكَرِهَ النَّاسُ ذَاكَ، وَأَحَبُّوا أَنْ يَدَعُوهُ عَلَى هَيْئَتِهِ، فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: " مَنْ بَنَى مَسْجِدًا لِلَّهِ، بَنَى اللهُ لَهُ بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِثْلَهُ " (١) .،

English translation

It was narrated from Mahmood bin Labeed That `Uthman (رضي الله عنه) wanted to build (an extension to) the mosque of Madinah, but the people objected to that and wanted to leave it as it was. `Uthman (رضي الله عنه) said:

I heard the Messenger of Allah( ﷺ) say: `Whoever builds a mosque for the sake of Allah, Allah will build for him a house like it in Paradise.`
