حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِبِنَاءِ الْمَسَاجِدِ فِي الدُّورِ وَأَنْ تُنَظَّفَ وَتُطَيَّبَ .

Muhammad ibn al-ʿAlaʾ narrated to us: Husayn ibn ʿAli narrated to us, from Zaʾidah, from Hisham ibn ʿUrwah, from his father, from ʿAʾishah, who said: The Messenger of Allah commanded that mosques be built in the neighborhoods, and that they be cleaned and perfumed.
