Chapter 6 · The Book of Mosques and Places of Prayerوَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي مَيْمُونَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَسْجُدُ فِي إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ فَقُلْتُ: تَسْجُدُ فِيهَا؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، رَأَيْتُ خَلِيلِي صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْجُدُ فِيهَا، فَلَا أَزَالُ أَسْجُدُ فِيهَا حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: قُلْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: نَعَمْ.
