حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍ ، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ لَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَبْنِيَ الْمَسْجِدَ كَرِهَ النَّاسُ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ :" مَنْ بَنَى لِلَّهِ مَسْجِدًا، بَنَى اللَّهُ لَهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِثْلَهُ "
