"This is water from my house" or "This water is from my house" are both of the same meaning. Why is your answer correct? I have found that this occurs quite often. The simple placement of one word in my English translation (a word that does not exist in Arabic) makes the response incorrect. I find it very frustrating when I have essentially the correct response and end up being told it is incorrect. Especially, when in the very next question, where I respond in the fashion that you have deemed correct and I then get that question wrong too. Please enlighten me, I am trying to understand.
Carol already answered it below, but simply:
haadhaa maa2 = this is water
haadhaa al-maa2 = this water
So it's definitely not the same.
(Also, try to open duolingo in web browser and read the tips section to every lesson, it's explained there. Sadly its's not available on phone-app for some reason in arabic course)

What is wrong in " this water is from my house " and "this us water is water from my house". The later one is correct as per Duolingo which us quite Wierd. Pathetic
