صَلِّ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْخَيْفِ وَ هُوَ مَسْجِدُ مِنًى وَ كَانَ مَسْجِدُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص عَلَى عَهْدِهِ عِنْدَ الْمَنَارَةِ الَّتِي فِي وَسَطِ الْمَسْجِدِ وَ فَوْقُهَا إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ نَحْواً مِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ ذِرَاعاً وَ عَنْ يَمِينِهَا وَ عَنْ يَسَارِهَا وَ خَلْفِهَا نَحْواً مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ فَتَحَرَّ ذَلِكَ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ يَكُونَ مُصَلَّاكَ فِيهِ فَافْعَلْ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ صَلَّى فِيهِ أَلْفُ نَبِيٍّ وَ إِنَّمَا سُمِّيَ الْخَيْفَ لِأَنَّهُ مُرْتَفِعٌ عَنِ الْوَادِي وَ مَا ارْتَفَعَ عَنْهُ يُسَمَّى خَيْفاً.

4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il has narrated from af-Fadf ibn Shadhan from Safwan ibn Yahya and Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who said, “You should perform Salat (prayer) in Masjid al-Khayf, it is the Masjid of Mina’. The Masjid of the Messenger of Allah (sw) was near the minaret in the center of the Masjid. Above this place toward al-Qiblah (al-Ka‘bah) is thirty yards as well as from its right, left and backsides. If you can perform Salat there then do so because one thousand prophets have performed Salat there. It is called al-Khayf because it is higher than the valley and what is higher is called Khayf.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
