Which is better, the Noble Makkah or the Blessed Madinah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: My children and I often travel to the Holy Lands and to the Blessed Madinah. Which is better in terms of reward and good deeds? I give more preference to Makkah than to Madinah.

Answer:
Yes, Makkah is better, because prayer in al-Masjid al-Haram is worth one hundred thousand prayers in any other place, and prayer in al-Masjid al-Nabawi is worth one thousand prayers in any other place. Also, al-Masjid al-Haram is the first house established for people. (Indeed, the first house established for people is the one at Bakka, which is blessed and a guidance for the worlds).
