The answer

There are only three mosques in which prayer is multiplied: Al-Masjid Al- (the Sacred Mosque), where a prayer is equivalent to one hundred thousand prayers; Al-Masjid An-Nabawi (the Prophet's Mosque), where a prayer is equivalent to one thousand prayers; and Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, where a prayer is equivalent to five hundred prayers. As for Quba Mosque, prayer in it is equivalent to performing '. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to visit it every Saturday and encouraged his companions to pray there due to its great virtue. The virtue of these mosques does not negate the importance of the Sunan (recommended prayers) and Nawafil (supererogatory prayers) required from a worshiper.
