عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ:
«صَلَاةٌ فِي مَسْجِدِي هَذَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ صَلَاةٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ إِلَّا الْمَسْجِدَ الْحَرَامَ».

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"A prayer in this mosque of mine is better than a thousand prayers anywhere else, except for the Sacred Mosque."

[Authentic hadith] - [Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim] - [Sahih Bukhari - 1190]

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed out the merit of prayer in his Mosque and that it brings a greater reward than a thousand prayers offered in any other mosque in the world, except for the Sacred Mosque in Makkah, where prayer is better than prayer in his Mosque (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
