English translation

2846. ‘Āishah said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had a Minbar placed in the Masjid for Ḥassān to stand to boast (poetically) about the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ – or she said: “to defend the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: ‘Indeed Allāh has aided Ḥassān with the holy spirit (Jibrīl) as he boasts about – or – defends the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.’” (Hasan) (Another chain) from ‘Āishah with similar narration. There are narrations on this topic from Abū Hurairah and Al-Barā’. [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb Ṣāḥih – and it is a narration of Ibn Abī Az-Zinād.

Commentary

The mosque is a centre of religion, the Minbar of a mosque is a means of preaching, spreading, protecting and defending the religion. Extolling the Prophet's praise and matters of dignity or defending him is 'Religion'. Therefore reading religious poetry in the mosque is allowed, and such a person is assisted by the holy spirit, Gabriel ﷺ.
