''Ar-Rawḍah ash-Sharīfah'' ({{langx|ar|ٱلرَّوْضَة ٱلشَّرِيْفَة|lit=The Noble Garden}}) is an area between the ''minbar'' and the burial-chamber of Muhammad. It is regarded as one of the ''Riyāḍ al-[[Jannah]]'' ({{langx|ar|رِيَاض ٱلْجَنَّة|lit=Gardens of the Paradise}}).<ref>{{cite book|author=Malik ibn Anas|author-link=Malik ibn Anas|title=[[Muwatta Imam Malik]]|chapter=14.5.11|chapter-url=http://sunnah.com/urn/404650}}</ref><ref name="Syed" /> A green carpet was used to distinguish the area from the red carpet used in the rest of the mosque, though it is now also green.
