Has any of the شیخs corrected or improved the hadith: "Build mosques therein and remove the dirt from them, for whoever builds a house for Allah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise, and removing the dirt from them is the dowry of the houri al-ayn," which was narrated by Al-Tabarani and Al-Diya' in Al-Mukhtarah from Abu Qirsafah, and classified as weak?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The hadith is weak due to the presence of unknown narrators in its chain, as mentioned by Al-Haythami, Al-Mubarakfuri, Al-Ayni, Al-Mundhiri, and Al-Iraqi. However, encouragement for building and cleaning mosques has been established through other evidence.
