What is the authenticity of the hadith: (Paradise is under the feet of mothers)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Paradise is under the feet of mothers الجنة تحت أقدام الأمهات
Is this hadith, O Shaykh, authentic?

The Shaykh: Paradise is under?

The questioner: The feet of mothers.

The Shaykh: The feet of mothers, this answer is the same answer; it was reported and it was not reported.

The questioner: No, but this text is not... .

The Shaykh: With this text.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh: And in Syria, they make a sign.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh: They say: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Paradise is under the feet of mothers الجنة تحت أقدام الأمهات
, and in the critique of the hadith scholars, they say about it: a denounced narration; meaning with this wording, this sentence, but this weak hadith is a type of the types of weak hadiths whose meaning is authentic, but whose structure is not authentic, meaning its meaning is authentic but its chain of narration is not authentic, so the status of this hadith - and this is what we use during the sermon - is that a man came from Yemen to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and said: I came to strive in jihad with you, O Messenger of Allah; but I left my mother and she is crying? He said:
Return to her and stick to her; for Paradise is at her feet ارجع إليها فالزَمْها ؛ فإن الجنة عند رجليها
As-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Nasa'i 17:19
This is the hadith...;
Stick to her, for Paradise is at her feet الزمها فإن الجنة عند رجليها
As-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Nasa'i 17:19
, and this is not the hadith that says:
Go back to them, and make them smile as you made them weep. ارجع إليهما فأضحكهما كما أبكيتهما
Sunan an-Nasa'i 4163Hasan (Darussalam)
, the first hadith is in "Sunan al-Nasa'i", and the second hadith - which is the most famous - is in "Sahih al-Bukhari and Muslim".

The questioner: And upon you peace.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
