فَإِنَّ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ رَوَى عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «يُسْتَحَبُّ اَلصَّلاَةُ فِي مَسْجِدِ اَلْغَدِيرِ لِأَنَّ اَلنَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ أَقَامَ فِيهِ أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ هُوَ مَوْضِعٌ أَظْهَرَ اَللَّهُ فِيهِ اَلْحَقَّ».

It is narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Nasr, from Aban, from Abu Abdullah (a.s), that he said: "Praying in the Mosque of Ghadir is recommended because the Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) appointed the Commander of the Faithful (a.s) there, and it is a place where Allah (swt) manifested the truth."

وَ رَوَى صَفْوَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ اَلْحَجَّاجِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ فِي مَسْجِدِ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ بِالنَّهَارِ وَ أَنَا مُسَافِرٌ فَقَالَ «صَلِّ فِيهِ فَإِنَّ فِيهِ فَضْلاً وَ قَدْ كَانَ أَبِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَأْمُرُ بِذَلِكَ».

It is narrated by Safwan from Abdul Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj, who said: "I asked Abu Ibrahim (a.s) about praying in the Mosque of Ghadir Khumm during the day while I am traveling. Imam (a.s) said: 'Pray in it, for there is merit in it, and my father (a.s) used to command this.'"

وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ حَسَّانَ اَلْجَمَّالِ قَالَ: حَمَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ مِنَ اَلْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَلَمَّا اِنْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى مَسْجِدِ اَلْغَدِيرِ نَظَرَ فِي مَيْسَرَةِ اَلْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ «ذَاكَ مَوْضِعُ قَدَمِ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ حَيْثُ قَالَ «مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلاَهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلاَهُ» » ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَى اَلْجَانِبِ اَلْآخَرِ فَقَالَ «ذَاكَ مَوْضِعُ فُسْطَاطِ اَلْمُنَافِقِينَ وَ سَالِمٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ وَ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ اَلْجَرَّاحِ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ رَافِعاً يَدَهُ قَالَ بَعْضُهُمُ اُنْظُرُوا إِلَى عَيْنَيْهِ تَدُورَانِ كَأَنَّهُمَا عَيْنَا مَجْنُونٍ فَنَزَلَ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ بِهَذِهِ اَلْآيَةِ « وَ إِنْ يَكٰادُ اَلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَيُزْلِقُونَكَ بِأَبْصٰارِهِمْ لَمّٰا سَمِعُوا اَلذِّكْرَ وَ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُ لَمَجْنُونٌ `وَ مٰا هُوَ إِلاّٰ ذِكْرٌ لِلْعٰالَمِينَ » ».

It is narrated from Hassan al-Jammal, who said: "I carried Abu Abdullah (a.s) from Medina to Mecca. When we reached the Mosque of Ghadir, he looked at the left side of the mosque and said, 'That is the spot where the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) stood and said: "Whomever I am his master, Ali is his master."' Then he looked to the other side and said, 'That is the spot where the tents of the hypocrites were pitched, including those of Salim, the freed slave of Abu Hudhayfah, and Abu Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah. When they saw him raising his hand, some of them said, "Look at his eyes—they are turning as if he is mad." Then Archangel Jibril (a.s) descended with this verse: "Indeed, those who disbelieve almost make you slip with their glances when they hear the message, and they say, 'He is indeed mad.' But it is nothing except a reminder for the worlds." (Surah Al-Qalam 68:51-52).'"
