وَعَن صَالح بن دِرْهَم يَقُولُ: انْطَلَقْنَا حَاجِّينَ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ لَنَا: إِلَى جَنْبِكُمْ قَرْيَةٌ يُقَالُ لَهَا: الْأُبُلَّةُ؟ قُلْنَا: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: مَنْ يَضْمَنُ لِي مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ لِي فِي مَسْجِدِ الْعَشَّارِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ أَوْ أَرْبَعًا وَيَقُولُ هَذِهِ لِأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ؟ سَمِعْتُ خَلِيلِي أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَبْعَثُ مِنْ مَسْجِدِ الْعَشَّارِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ شُهَدَاءَ لَا يَقُومُ مَعَ شُهَدَاءِ بَدْرٍ غَيْرُهُمْ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ. وَقَالَ: هَذَا الْمَسْجِدُ مِمَّا يَلِي النَّهْرَ وَسَنَذْكُرُ حَدِيثَ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ: «إِنَّ فُسْطَاطَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ» فِي بَابِ: «ذِكْرِ الْيَمَنِ وَالشَّامِ» . إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى
Salih b. Dirham said:
We went on pilgrimage and met a man who asked whether there was a town near us called al-Ubulla. On our replying that there was he asked if any of us would undertake to pray two or four rak'as on his behalf in the mosque of al- `Ashshar, stating that they were on behalf of Abu Huraira, for he had heard his friend Abul Qasim say, "On the day of resurrection God who is great and glorious will raise martyrs from the mosque of al-'Ashshar who will be the only ones to rise along with the martyrs of Badr." Abu Dawud transmitted it, saying this mosque is near the river.
