REWARD FOR GOING TO MOSQUE

Hadrat Abdullah bin ‘Umar (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Prophet said: When anyone walks to a mosque for congregational Salaah, each of his steps obliterates one of his sins, and causes a good deed to be recorded, both while going and returning. [Ahmad, Tabarani]

Hadrat Buraida (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated ALLAAH’s messenger as saying, “Announce to those who make a practice of walking to mosques during the times of darkness the good news, that they will have complete light on the day of resurrection.” [Tirmizi, Abu Dawud]

Hadrat Anas bin Malik (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated ALLAAH’s messenger as saying “A man’s Salaah in his house is equivalent to a single observance of Salaah, his Salaah in a tribal mosque is equivalent to twenty five, his Salaah in mosque in which  Friday Salaah is observed is equivalent to five hundred, his Salaah in the AQSA Mosque is equivalent to fifty thousand, his Salaah in my mosque is equivalent to fifty thousand, and his Salaah in sacred mosque (The Ka’ba) is equivalent to a hundred thousand.” [lbn-Majah, Mishkat]
