6 حَدَّثَنِي حَكِيمُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ مُصَدِّقِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ مُوسَى السَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ فِي مَسْجِدِ الرَّسُولِ (ص) هَلْ مِثْلُ الصَّلَاةِ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ (ع) لَا لِأَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ فِي مَسْجِدِ الرَّسُولِ (ص) بِأَلْفِ صَلَاةٍ وَ الصَّلَاةَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ مِثْلُ الصَّلَاةِ فِي سَائِرِ الْأَمْصَارِ

6. Ḥukaym ibn Dāwūd ibn Ḥukaym narrated to me from Salamah ibn Khaťťāb, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqah, from ‘Ammār ibn Mūsā Al-Sābāťi, who said: I asked Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq ), “Is praying in the Mosque of the Prophet ﷺ the same as praying anywhere else in Madīnah?” Imam replied, “No. One Salāt (prayer) in the Mosque of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ is equal to one thousand prayers elsewhere. However, praying anywhere else in Madīnah is just like praying in any other city.”
