Rewards and Excellence of Praying in the Paighambar's (ص ) masjid.

Tradition 1: The narrator asked Imam Sadiq (ع ), “Is praying in the Paighambar's (ص ) mosque same as praying elsewhere in Madina?”
Imam Sadiq (ع ) replied, “No. One ritual prayer in the Paighambar's (ص ) mosque is equal to a thousand prayers elsewhere; but praying elsewhere in Madina is just like praying in any other city.


Tradition 2: The narrator asked Imam Sadiq (ع ) about praying in the Prophet’s mosque. Imam Sadiq (ع ) replied: Allah’s Paighambar(ص ) said: A prayer in my mosque equals a thousand prayers elsewhere and a prayer in Masjid-ul-Haram equals a thousand prayers in my mosque.

Imam Sadiq (ع ) further said: Indeed, Allah !  has preferred Mecca to other cities and has preferred specific areas of Makkah over other areas in it, saying, “Take for yourself a place of prayer in the standing-place of Ibrahim”. (Surah Baqarah 2:125)
Allah ! has also preferred some people over others and in his Book, ordered people to follow and love them.


Tradition 3: Imam Sadiq (ع ) said: A prayer in the Paighambar's (ص ) mosque equals ten thousand prayers elsewhere.


Tradition 4: Imam Sadiq (ع ) said: Pray more in the Paighambar's (ص ) mosque, for Allah’s Paighambar(ص ) has said, “A prayer in my Masjid equals a thousand prayers in any other, except Masjid-ul Haram, for a prayer in Masjid-ul Haram equals a thousand prayers in my Masjid.”
