Sahih Muslim 568a (Book 5, Hadith 98) #8413
Lost Items in the Mosque

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that mosques are not places to look for lost items.

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah said: If anyone hears a man crying out in the mosque about something he has lost, he should say: May Allah not restore it to you, for the mosques were not built for this.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ حَيْوَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، مَوْلَى شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ مَنْ سَمِعَ رَجُلاً يَنْشُدُ ضَالَّةً فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَلْيَقُلْ لاَ رَدَّهَا اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ فَإِنَّ الْمَسَاجِدَ لَمْ تُبْنَ لِهَذَا

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us that mosques are places of worship and should be respected as such. He said that if someone hears someone crying out in the mosque about something they have lost, they should say "May Allah not restore it to you" because mosques were not built for this purpose. This hadith teaches us to respect the sanctity of a mosque and use it only for its intended purpose - prayer and worship. It also teaches us to be mindful of our words when we are in a place of worship and avoid speaking negatively or making requests from Allah which may be inappropriate or disrespectful.
