The Excellence of Praying in the Prophet's Mosque

SUMMARY: Prayer in the Prophet's mosque is better than a thousand prayers in any other mosque, except for the Masjid al-Haram.

Ibn 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Apostle as saying: Prayer in this mosque of mine is better than a thousand prayers (observed in other mosque) besides it, except that of Masjid al-Haram.
وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، - وَهُوَ الْقَطَّانُ - عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ صَلاَةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِي هَذَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ أَلْفِ صَلاَةٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ إِلاَّ الْمَسْجِدَ الْحَرَامَ
