Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

THE EXCELLENCE OF A MOSQUE

Hadrat Abu Umama(Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that a Jewish doctor asked the Prophet what places were the best, but he did not answer his question, saying, “I shall say nothing till Jibraeel  comes.” So he remained silent and when Jibraeel  came he asked him but he replied “The one who is asked knows no more than the one who asks, but I shall ask my Lord.” Later Jibraeel  said, Muhammad, I approached my Lord nearer than I have ever come before.” When Muhammad asked about that, he replied, “Between Him and me there were seventy thousand veils of light, and He said that the worst places were the markets and the best their mosques.” [lbn-Hibban]
