The Prophet's Mosque.
The Madinan Sanctuary / The Prophet’s Mosque in Medina
The Prophet's (PBUH) prayer ground was an open area without any buildings to the west of the Prophet's Mosque, where the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) used to perform the Eid prayers. This location, originally used as a resting place for the camels of caravans and the market of Medina, was known as "Minaqah," later referred to as the "Maidan-i-Masjid."
Ḥaram Madanī is an area of the city of Medina in the Hijaz that, in Islam, holds sanctity and has special etiquettes and rulings.
This area extends from the east and west between the eastern lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Sharqiyya) and the western lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Gharbiyya), and from the north and south, from Mount Thawr to Mount ʿAyr.
The Madinan Sanctuary has rulings and etiquettes, such as the recommended act of performing ghusl and purification when entering it, and these are similar to the rulings and etiquettes of the Meccan Sanctuary.
Some have considered the reason for Medina being made a sanctuary to be the granting of protection to Medina and its inhabitants, while others have attributed it to the presence of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

==Why it became a Haram==
 
Various reasons have been mentioned for why the city of Medina was made a sanctuary (ḥaram).
The Prophet's (PBUH) prayer ground in Medina was an open area without any buildings to the west of the Prophet's Mosque.(1)( • Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā.vol3.p122). This area was known as "Minaqah," used as a resting place for camels and as the location for the market of Medina. It was also referred to as the "Maidan-i-Masjid," the prayer ground.(2)( • ʿAbdu-l Ghanī, Muḥammad ʾIlyās. Al-Masājid al-Atharīyya fī al- madīna al-munawwara.p223).
Some of them are as follows:

In the sources, reference has been made to places in Minaqah where the Prophet performed the Eid prayers.

Al-Masājid al-Atharīyya fī al- madīna al-munawwara.p224/225).
The witnessing of divine lights by the Prophet (peace be upon him) within this area;
According to the narrations transmitted by Ibn Shu'ba, the Prophet performed the Eid prayers in the following locations, all of which are in Minaqah: [4] Numīrī, Ibn Shubba. ''Tārīkh al-madīna al-munawwara' .vol1.p133-135

The Pulpit of Masjid-i-Masalla
 
During the time of the Prophet (PBUH) and until the era of Marwan ibn Hakam, the Prophet's prayer ground did not have a pulpit. It is reported that after performing the prayer, the Prophet would stand in front of the worshipers and deliver a sermon.(18) Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā .vol3.p125).
However, during the time of Marwan ibn Hakam, a pulpit was placed in the prayer ground. Marwan would deliver a sermon before performing the prayer, as it was believed that after the prayer, people might not stay to hear his words.(19)( Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā .vol3.p126).
Some narrations also attribute the use of the pulpit and delivering the sermon before the prayer to Uthman ibn Affan.( 20]( Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā .vol3.p127/128).
