Sunan Ibn Majah 1413 (Book 5, Hadith 611) #30765
The Reward of Prayer in Different Mosques

SUMMARY: The hadith explains that the reward for prayer increases depending on the location of the mosque.

It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'A man’s prayer in his house is equal (in reward) to one prayer; his prayer in the mosque of the tribes is equal to twenty-five prayers; his prayer in the mosque in which Friday prayer is offered is equal to five-hundred prayers; his prayer in Aqsa Mosque is equal to fifty thousand prayers; his prayer in my mosque is equal to fifty thousand prayers; and his prayer in the Sacred Mosque is equal to one hundred thousand prayers".
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْخَطَّابِ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا رُزَيْقٌ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَلْهَانِيُّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ﷺ ـ ‏ "‏ صَلاَةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي بَيْتِهِ بِصَلاَةٍ وَصَلاَتُهُ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْقَبَائِلِ بِخَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ صَلاَةً وَصَلاَتُهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الَّذِي يُجَمَّعُ فِيهِ بِخَمْسِمِائَةِ صَلاَةٍ وَصَلاَةٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الأَقْصَى بِخَمْسِينَ أَلْفِ صَلاَةٍ وَصَلاَةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِي بِخَمْسِينَ أَلْفِ صَلاَةٍ وَصَلاَةٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ بِمِائَةِ أَلْفِ صَلاَةٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that when a person prays, they will be rewarded for it. However, if they pray in certain mosques, their reward will be multiplied. For example, if someone prays in their house, they will receive one prayer's worth of reward; however, if they pray in a mosque where Friday prayers are held, then their reward is five hundred times greater than praying at home. Similarly, if someone prays at Aqsa Mosque or the Prophet's Mosque then their reward is fifty thousand times greater than praying at home and if someone prays at the Sacred Mosque then their reward is one hundred thousand times greater than praying at home. This hadith teaches us to take advantage of our opportunities and to make use of our time by going to mosques and offering prayers there as it can bring us great rewards from Allah Almighty.
