Sunan Ibn Majah 772 (Book 4, Hadith 38) #30124
Asking for Mercy & Bounty at Mosque Entrance & Exit

SUMMARY: When entering and leaving the mosque, one should send peace upon the Prophet and ask Allah for His mercy and bounty.

It was narrated that Abu Humaid As-Sa'idi said: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'When anyone of you enters the mosque, let him send peace upon the prophet, then let him say: "Allahummaftah li abwaba rahmatika (O Allah, open to me the gates of Your mercy)". And when he leaves, let him say: "Allahumma inni as'aluka min fadlika. (O Allah, I ask of you from Your bounty)".
