Question
Dear brother(s), I have come across some hadith which I would like to know if they are genuine. If so what are their references? Hadith 1: "And the prophet peace be upon him said, "The mosques are built for Allah the Most High, " Hadith 2: And the Prophet, peace be upon him, said, 'Whoever visited a mosque visited (so to say) the Most High Allah (Himself) and it is incumbent on the thus visited to bless the visitor And all praise is due to Allah." Hadith 3: "The Prophet, peace be upon him said, "The mosques are the Divine courtyards and structures. The Most High Allah orders their erection and confers blessings on their inmates." Many thanks in advance.
Answer
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions.
We did not find the words of Ahadith you mentioned in your question in the sources of Sunnah, though the content of these Ahadith is correct. Mosques are the houses of Allah and are the dearest parts of land to Allah. The visitors of them are respectable before Allah. The Prophet said: "Allah will prepare for him who goes to the mosques (every) morning and in the afternoon (for the congregational prayer) an honorable place in paradise with good hospitality for (what he has done) every morning and afternoon going. [Bukhari and Muslim]. Allah knows best.
