It is the place between the house of the Prophet and his pulpit, as the Prophet, (may peace and prayers be upon him), said: “Between my house and my pulpit is one of the gardens of Paradise”. The shape of Ar-Rawdhah is rectangular, and its length from the pulpit to the Sacred Chamber is 53 cubits, equivalent to 26.5 m. It is now defined by green carpets different from the other carpets of the Mosque.

It has a number of landmarks: The pulpit, the prophetic mihraab (prayer niche), and Al-Asateen [the pillars].
