    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 432/430=M)

     

    According to a Hadith of Ibn Majah, the reward of one salah in Prophet?s mosque in Medina is equal to fifty thousand salah in any other mosque: صلاۃ فی مسجدی بخمسین ألف صلاۃ

     

    Apart from this, praying forty salah continuously in Masjid-un-Nabi (Prophet?s mosque) has virtues that this will be a source of salvation from punishment and hellfire and deliverance from Nifaq ((hypocrisy).

    من صلی فی مسجدی اربعین صلاۃ لاتفوتہ صلاۃ کتب لہ براءۃ من النار و براءۃ من العذاب و براءۃ من النفاق۔ (مسند أحمد)
