In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Salman, may Allah be pleased with him, wrote to Abu Ad-Dardaa, may Allah be pleased with him, saying, “O my brother! It is incumbent upon you to attach yourself to the Masjid and be constantly there, for indeed I heard the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, saying, ‘The Masjid is the house of every pious person'”.

Al-Allamah Zaid Bin Hadi Al-Mad’khali, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:

First: The hadith is proof to show that the most virtuous place on the earth are the Masajid and the best of the people are its maintainers, because they are people of Iman based on the proof:

إِنَّمَا يَعۡمُرُ مَسَـٰجِدَ ٱللَّهِ مَنۡ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأَخِرِ وَأَقَامَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَى ٱلزَّڪَوٰةَ وَلَمۡ يَخۡشَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ‌ۖ فَعَسَىٰٓ أُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ أَن يَكُونُواْ مِنَ ٱلۡمُهۡتَدِينَ

The Mosques of Allah shall be maintained only by those who believe in Allah and the Last Day; perform As-Salat, give Zakat and fear none but Allah. It is they who are expected to be on true guidance. [a-Tawbah. 18]

Second: Prayer in the Masjid is multiplied [i.e. 27 times] and none is excused for being absent from the Masajid [i.e. except one who has a legislated Islamic excuse]. Continuous presence in the Masajid and attaching one’s heart to them is a sign of one’s Iman, strength and desire for good.
