وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمَدَنِيُّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ " مَا بَيْنَ مِنْبَرِي وَبَيْتِي رَوْضَةٌ مِنْ رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ " .

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 1390b
This garden from Paradise hadith repeats the same core meaning through another narration from Abdullah b. Zaid al-Ansari. He heard the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم say that what is between his pulpit and his house is a garden from the gardens of Paradise. The order of the words is slightly different from the previous narration, but the teaching remains focused on the honored space in the Prophet’s Mosque. This hadith is often searched as Rawdah hadith, Riyad al-Jannah hadith, and between my pulpit and my house. The safe way to explain it is to stay with the text: the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم gave this area a special description linked to Paradise.
What we learn from this hadith
- The space between the Prophet’s pulpit and house is described with great honor.
- Different chains can preserve the same core meaning with slight wording changes.
- The narration teaches respect for the Prophet’s Mosque and its sacred spaces.
- A believer should not go beyond the wording when explaining sacred texts.
