On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "Between my house and my pulpit is a garden from the gardens of Paradise."(1)

4258 - And with this chain of transmission,
from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "A prayer in this mosque of mine is better than a thousand prayers in other mosques, except the Sacred Mosque."(2)
This is a sound hadith, and it has been narrated from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, through multiple chains.

4259 - Muhammad ibn Bashshar narrated to us, saying: Mu'adh ibn Hisham narrated to us, saying: My father narrated to me, from Ayyub, from Nafi',
from Ibn 'Umar, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever is able to die in Madinah, let him die there, for I will intercede for whoever dies in it."(3)
In this chapter, there is also a narration from Subay'ah bint al-Harith al-Aslamiyyah.
