was to advance, scientists were to emerge, the travel of months was to be covered in hours, claims of reaching the Moon and Mars were to be made, and so it was possible that someone of today would say, ’If your Prophet is my Prophet, then he is the Prophet of this era too. If that is the case, then what such miracle of his is there with regards to science?’ So the miracle of the Mi’raj is that great miracle which no scientist from the whole world can give an answer to. This miracle was bestowed to our Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم in which He صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم saw Allah Almighty with his very own blessed eyes in a state of wakefulness.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب           صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic Brothers! The Holy Quran has related some of the event and Miracle of Mi’raj in Part 15, Surah Bani Israel.

سُبْحٰنَ الَّذِیْۤ اَسْرٰى بِعَبْدِهٖ لَیْلًا مِّنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ اِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْاَقْصَا الَّذِیْ بٰرَكْنَا حَوْلَهٗ لِنُرِیَهٗ مِنْ اٰیٰتِنَاؕ-اِنَّهٗ هُوَ السَّمِیْعُ الْبَصِیْرُ(۱)

Glory be to Him Who took His bondsman by the night from the Sacred Mosque (Ka’bah) to Al- Aqsa Mosque around which We have placed blessing, in order that We may show him Our great Signs. Indeed He is The All-Hearing, The All-Seeing. [Kanz-ul-Iman (translation of Quran)](Part 15, Surah Bani Israel, Ayah 01)

Let us listen to the summary of what Maulana Sayyid Na’eemuddin Muradabadi رَحْمَةُ اللهِ  عَلَيْه has stated under this Ayah in Khaza’in-ul-Irfan:

The blessed Mi’raj is a miracle of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. It is such an esteemed blessing from Allah Almighty which shows the utmost proximity that the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has in the court of Allah Almighty, and this is that rank which was not given to anyone from the creation, except him صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. The Blessed Mi’raj happened in a state of wakefulness with the body and soul. (Khaza’in-ul-Irfan, Part 15, Bani Israel: Taht-al-Ayah 1)
