Abu Huraira Allah be pleased with him reported: Prayer in the Masjid of Allah Messenger ﷺ is more excellent than a thousand prayers in other Masjids except the Masjid AlHaram; for Allah Messenger ﷺ is the last of the Apostles; and his Masjid is the last of the Masjids. Abu Salama and Abu Abdullah two of the narrators in this chain of narrations said: We had no doubt that what Abu Haraira Allah be pleased with him had said was from Allah Messenger ﷺ ; and so we did not like to get an attestation from Abu Huraira about this hadith until Abu Huraira Allah be pleased with him died. We discussed it the issue of getting attestation from Abu Huraira amongst ourselves and blamed one another as to why we did not talk about it to Abu Huraira regarding it so that he could attribute its transmission to Allah Messenger ﷺ in case he had heard It from him. While we were discussing it as we sat with Abdullah Bin Ibrahlm Bin Qariz; we made a mention of this hadith; and our omission in getting its attestation about its direct transmission by Abu Huraira from him the Holy Proohet ; thereupon Abdullah Bin Ibrahim said to us: I bear witness to the fact that I heard Abu Huraira Allah be pleased with him say that Allah Messenger ﷺ said: I am the last of the Apostles and my Masjid is the last of the Masjids.
