Meraj un nabi(saws)

On the night in which I was taken on the journey, I passed by Moosa (Alaihis salaam) and he was performing salaah in his grave.”  (Sahih Muslim Pg.268 Vol.1)

Few Punishments mentioned

1.lips were being slit with scissors of fire —-for those who command people to do good deeds while forgetting their own selves(They read the Book of Allah, without themselves practising upon it.) (Mishkaatul Masaabih Pg.438)

2. had fingernails of copper and they were raking their own faces and chests with them—those who used to eat the flesh of others (i.e. slandered them) and attacked their reputations.” (Abu Dawood, in Mishkaat p.249)

3. bellies as huge as houses (in which people stay) and inside their bellies were snakes which were visible from the outside—-those who consume interest (usury).”  (Mishkaatul Masaabih Pg.246)

Buraaq(lightening speed)

“No sooner did the Buraaq begin to prance, Jibraeel twisted its ears and helped me mount it. (Dalaa-ilun Nubuwwah  by imam baihaqi (p.355 vol.2)”.

When Nabi(saws) left Makkah for Baitul Maqdis, Jibraeel (Alaihis salaam) accompanied him on the back of the Buraaq. He sat in the front, as a guide, and seated Nabi(saws) behind him..(Fathul Baari Pg.208 Vol.7). 

Sidratul muntaha (The word “Sidrah ” in Arabic means “a lote tree “, while “Al-Muntahaa ” denotes “furthest” or “a place of ending”).

1.it is so huge that a rider could ride for up to hundred years under the shade of its branches, or that a hundred horsemen are able to roam under its shade. (Mishkaat p. 498)

2.it was bedecked with golden moths.(Sahih Muslim Vol.1).

3. Every order of Allah that descends from above, comes to an end there, and every deed of man which rises from the earth towards the heavens, comes to a halt at this point. ” In other words, whenever an order of Allah is issued, it first stops there before descending upon the earth, and the deeds of man from below first stop there and are then lifted above( sahih muslim)

Kausar

,”While walking in Jannah, I suddenly found myself along a river. On both its banks were domes of pearls that were empty in the centre (i.e. the whole dome consisted of just one pearl). I asked Jibraeel (Alaihis salaam) what this was and he replied that it was the river of Kausar which Allah has bestowed upon me. When I took a closer look at it, I noticed that the soil (beneath the water), was an immensely fragrant musk.” (Sahih Bukhaari)

GIFTS BESIDES SALAAH
Revelation of the last few verses of Surah Al Baqarah (i.e. from ” Aa-manar-rasoolu bimaa un-zila ilayhi mir-rab-bihee wal-mu’-minoon….till the end).

Sins forgiven of the ummah of Rasulullah(saws): At the same time, it was also announced that the major sins of those in the ummah of Rasulullah(saws) who do not ascribe partners with Allah will be forgiven. (Sahih Muslim p. 97 Vol. 1).

This means that they will not suffer eternal punishment on account of their major sins, but will instead be pardoned either through tawba (sincere repentance) and istighfaar (seeking the forgiveness of Allah), or after first being punished for their sins.(An Nawawi).

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
