Book Name:Safar e Meraj 27th Rajab 1442
Every age belongs to my beloved
Dear Islamic brothers! It was not only the age of the Arabs which was the age of our Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, rather, every forthcoming age was to be the age of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. The world was yet to progress, scientists were to come, the journey of months was to take place in hours, claims of reaching the moon and Mars were to be made, seemingly impossible things were to become possible. It was possible that an individual of today would say, ‘If your Prophet is our Prophet and the Prophet of this age as well, then which miracle of his is in relation to today’s science?’
Thus, the miracle of Mi’raaj is such an answer to which the world of science has no response. Mi’raaj is that great night in which our Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was granted this miracle and it is on that night that Allah Almighty honoured him with His Own Vision also, and he صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم saw His Lord with his physical eyes, whilst awake. Our Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم travelled across the earth, heavens, Paradise, Hell, the Divine Throne and to La-Makaan and then returned, in a short part of the night, and showed us that the speedy inventions of science are on one side and the speed of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم going to and returning from Mi’raaj is far beyond that.
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Dear Islamic brothers! Let us have the honour of listening to some words of the Quran in relation to Mi’raaj:
The night journey and the Quran
Allah Almighty has beautifully explained this journey of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم in the Quran; He attributed the journeying of such a large distance in a short portion of the night to Himself. Hence, Allah Almighty states:
