The virtue of residing in Makkah and al-Madinah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah guide you, O honorable Shaykh. A questioner asks: Is it recommended to reside in Makkah, and is there any evidence for this?
Answer:
Yes, residing in Makkah or al-Madinah is a good thing. Al-Madinah is better for them, if only they knew. Residing in Makkah is even better, for a prayer in al-Masjid al-Haram is worth a hundred thousand prayers, and a prayer in al-Masjid al-Nabawi is worth a thousand prayers for one whom Allah has guided. It is a great gain for one whose circumstances are made easy.
