I used to recite Qur'an to my father on the road, and if I recited a verse in which prostration was required, he would prostrate. I said: 'O my father, do you prostrate on the street?' He said: 'I heard Abu Dharr say: I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): 'Which Masjid was built first?' He said: 'Al-Masjid Al-Haram.' [1] I said: 'Then which?' He said: 'Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa.' [2] I said: 'How long was there between them?' He said: 'Forty years. And the earth is a Masjid (or a place of prostration) for you, so wherever you are when the time for prayer comes, pray.' [1] In Makkah. [2] Furthest Masjid, meaning the Masjid in Jerulsalem.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Qutaibah dia berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Al Laits dari 'Imran bin Abu Anas dari Ibnu Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri dari Bapaknya dia berkata; Ada dua orang yang bertengkar tentang masjid yang pertama kali didirikan atas dasar takwa semenjak hari pertamanya dibangun. Salah seorang dari dua orang tersebut berkata 'Masjid Quba. Yang lain berkata. Masjid Rasulullah Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam'. Lantas Rasulullah Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam bersabda: Masjidku ini.
