I was then taken to the sixth sky. Jibra`eel knocked at the door. It was asked: Who is there? He replied: I am Jibra`eel. It was then asked: Who is with you? He replied, ‘He is [Sayyiduna] Muhammad صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. It was asked: Has he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم been called? He replied: Yes, he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has been called. The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said that the door was opened for us and I met Sayyiduna Musa عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّنَا وَعَـلَيْهِ الصَّلٰوةُ وَالسَّلَام. He welcomed me and made Du’a for me.

Then I was taken to the seventh sky. Jibra`eel knocked at the door. It was asked: Who is there? He replied: I am Jibra`eel. It was asked: Who is with you? He replied: He is [Sayyiduna] Muhammad (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم). It was asked: Has he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم been called? He replied: Yes, he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has been called. Then the door was opened for us and I met Sayyiduna Ibraheem عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّنَا وَعَـلَيْهِ الصَّلٰوةُ وَالسَّلَام who was leaning against Bayt-ul-Ma’moor [the Qiblah of angels that is in the sky right above the Holy Ka’bah]. Everyday 70 thousand angels visit this Bayt-ul-Ma’moor and the angel that visits once does not get the opportunity to visit it again. (Sahih Muslim, Kitab-ul-Iman, pp. 97, Hadees 259)

Sayyiduna Jibra`eel عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام humbly said: (about Sayyiduna Ibraheem  عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام to the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم) He is your father; please say Salam to him. The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said Salam and he عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام replied to his Salam. Then welcoming the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم he عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام stated: ‘مَرۡحَبًا بِالۡاِبۡنِ الصَّالِحِ وَالنَّبِيِّ الصَّالِحِ’ i.e. A righteous son and a righteous Nabi is welcomed. (Sahih Bukhari, pp. 977, Hadees 3887)

Having met Sayyiduna Ibraheem عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّنَا وَعَـلَيْهِ الصَّلٰوةُ وَالسَّلَام on the seventh sky, the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم reached near Sidra-tul-Muntaha[1] which is a luminous jujube tree whose root is on the sixth sky and branches over the seventh sky[2]; its leaves resemble the ears of the elephant and fruits are shaped like a large earthen pitchers of Maqaam-e-Hijr. Sayyiduna Jibra`eel عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام humbly said: It is Sidra-tul-Muntaha. The Beloved Rasool                 صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم saw four streams here which would come out from the root
