Hadith 9

(The book) ‘Al Tahzeeb’ –
‘With an unbroken chain, similar to it, except in it is: ‘And say ‘Bismillah’ when you enter it’’. [51]
And from him, in ‘Al Mowsiq’ (trusted Hadeeth), from Sama’at who said, ‘When you enter the Masjid, then say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and the greeting be unto Rasool-Allah-saww, the Greeting of Allah-azwj and greetings of His-azwj Angels be unto Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad, and the Greeting be upon them-asws and Mercy of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Blessings! Lord-azwj, Forgive my sins for me and Open the doors of Your-azwj Grace for me! ’
And when you exit, then say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Forgive me and Open doors of Your-azwj Grace for me! ’’[52]
And from him, From Abdullah son of Al-Hassan-asws who said, ‘When you enter the Masjid, then say, ‘O Allah‑azwj! Forgive me and Open doors of Your-azwj Mercy for me! ’ And when you exit, then say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Forgive me and open doors of Your-azwj Grace for me’’. [53] (See H 11 below and H 14))
And from him in ‘Al-Hassan’ (good Hadeeth), from Ibn Sinan, ‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When you enter the Masjid, send Salawaat unto the Prophet-saww, and when you exit, do that (as well)’’. [54]
And from him, in ‘Al Majhoul’ (Hadeeth by unknown narrators), from Yunus, ‘From them-asws having said: ‘The merit in entering the Masjid is that you begin with your right leg when you enter, and with the left leg when you exit’’. [55]
