Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu Medina - 20th Shawwal 1425 (3 December 2004)
Narrated Anas (Radhiallaho anho): The Prophet (sallallaahu'alaihi wasallam) came to Medina and ordered a mosque to be built and said, "O Bani Najjar! Suggest to me the price (of your land)." They said, "We do not want its price except from Allah" (i.e. they wished for a reward from Allah for giving up their land freely). So, the Prophet ordered the graves of the pagans to be dug out and the land to be levelled, and the date-palm trees to be cut down. The cut date-palms were fixed in the direction of the Qibla of the mosque. Bukhari Vol. 3 : No. 92 -- You are subscribed as [email protected] Tell others about AHAD - A Hadith A Day!
