Mishkat al-Masabih 717
وَعَن عَائِشَة قَالَت: أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِبِنَاءِ الْمَسْجِدِ فِي الدُّورِ وَأَنْ يُنَظَّفَ وَيَطَيَّبَ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ وَابْن مَاجَه
‘A’isha said that God's Messenger ordered that a mosque be built in a residential district and that it be cleaned and perfumed. Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah transmitted it.
