حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ الرَّقِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ الْغِفَارِيِّ، قَالَ، قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَيُّ مَسْجِدٍ وُضِعَ أَوَّلُ؟ قَالَ: الْمَسْجِدُ الْحَرَامُ ، قَالَ، قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ أَيٌّ؟ قَالَ: ثُمَّ الْمَسْجِدُ الْأَقْصَى ، قُلْتُ: كَمْ بَيْنَهُمَا؟ قَالَ: أَرْبَعُونَ عَامًا، ثُمَّ الْأَرْضُ لَكَ مُصَلًّى، فَصَلِّ حَيْثُ مَا أَدْرَكَتْكَ الصَّلَاةُ .

Which Mosque Was Built First
I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Which mosque was built first?' He said: 'Al-Masjid Al-Haram (in Makkah).' I said: 'Then which?' He said: 'then Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa (in Jerusalem).' I said: 'How many years between them?' He said: 'Forty years, but the whole earth is a mosque for you, so pray wherever you are when the time for prayer comes.'
