Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِي هَذَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ أَلْفِ صَلَاةٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ إِلَّا الْمَسْجِدَ الْحَرَامَ وَصَلَاةٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ مِائَةِ أَلْفِ صَلَاةٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ.
English Translation
Ahmad ibn Abd al-Malik told us, Ubaydullah ibn Amr told us, from Abd al-Karim, from Ata', from Jabir ibn Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "A prayer in this mosque of mine is better than a thousand prayers elsewhere, except the Sacred Mosque; and a prayer in the Sacred Mosque is better than a hundred thousand prayers elsewhere."
