What is meant by "What is between my grave and my pulpit is a garden from the gardens of Paradise," and what is required of us to do, and what is the reward for that, and is the wording of the hadith authentic?
The agreed-upon states: "What is between my house and my minbar is a garden from the gardens of Paradise." The word "grave" is found only in Musnad Ahmad.
Scholars have differed on the meaning of "garden" (rawdah): 1. It is like a garden from the gardens of Paradise in terms of the descent of mercy and happiness due to the regular gatherings of remembrance () held there. 2. That acts of worship performed there lead to Paradise. 3. That it is a real garden whose location will be transferred to Paradise, and this is what Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar mentioned.
In that blessed spot, one should perform prayers, recite the Qur'an, and frequently engage in the established forms of remembrance and supplications.
