Al-Isra wal-Miraj wa Dhikr Ahadithihima wa Takhrijiha wa Bayan Sahihiha - Nasir al-Din al-Albani - (29)

He answered, “Muhammad.” They asked, “Has he been summoned?” He said, “Yes.” They replied, “Welcome and greetings to him!”

He was then carried up to the third heaven, and its angels said the same as those of the first and second. Next he rose to the fourth, and they repeated the same words; then to the fifth, and they did likewise; then to the sixth, and they did likewise.

He was finally taken to the seventh heaven, and they too greeted him in the same manner. In each heaven there were prophets—whose names he mentioned—but the ones I remember are Idris in the second, Aaron in the fourth, another in the fifth whose name I did not retain, Abraham in the sixth, and Moses in the seventh, honored with Allah’s direct speech. Moses said, “My Lord, I did not imagine anyone would be raised above me.”

He was then lifted beyond that to a realm known only to Allah until he reached the Lote-Tree of the Ultimate Boundary, where the Almighty, Possessor of Majesty, drew near and descended.

قال: محمد ﷺ. قالوا وقد بعث إليه؟ قال: نعم. قالوا: مرحبا به وأهلا. ثم عرج به إلى السماء الثالثة وقالوا له مثل ما قالت الأولى والثانية. ثم عرج به إلى الرابعة فقالوا له مثل ذلك. ثم عرج به إلى الخامسة فقالوا له مثل ذلك. ثم عرج به إلى السادسة فقالوا له مثل ذلك. ثم عرج به إلى السابعة فقالوا له مثل ذلك كل سماء فيها أنبياء قد سماهم فأوعيت منهم إدريس في الثانية. وهارون في الرابعة. وآخر في الخامسة لم أحفظ اسمه. وإبراهيم في السادسة. وموسى في السابعة بتفضيل كلام الله فقال موسى: رب! لم أظن أن يرفع علي أحد. ثم علا به فوق ذلك بما لا يعلمه إلا الله. حتى جاء سدرة المنتهى ودنا الجبار رب العزة فتدلى
