Shabe mehraj

Imam Ibne Hajr Makki (Ra) states in Shar’he Hamziyya:

…….When Nabi Sulaymaan, was given the wind, it carried him the distance of one months journey in one day. Our Master (ﷺ) was given the Buraaq which carried him from the earth to the Arsh in a fleeting moment. The shortest portion of this journey (between earth and the seven skies) takes seventeen thousand years. And Allah only knows the distance above the Arsh to the arcane levels with the Rafraf (to the Divine Presence). 

……. Nabi Moosa, was blessed with Dialogue (Kalaam). Similarly, our Master (ﷺ) was blessed on the night of Isra with Divine Presence. He saw Allah from very close range with his naked eye. You cannot compare the experiences of Mount Toor with the experiences of our Master (ﷺ) with ALLAH. 
…Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (ﷺ) physically proceeded to the skies on the night of Isra in wakefulness. From there to Sidratul Muntaha, then Divine Levels, then Arsh and Rafraf till he saw the Divine Vision! 

Imame-Ajal Sayyidi Muhammad Boseeri (Ra) , in his renowned Qasidah Burdah Shareef states: … The noble status of the Nabi (ﷺ) left everything below him when he proceeded towards the Divine Heights of the Unique Lord, on the Night of Ascension.

….Sayyidul Alameen (ﷺ) was blessed with exclusive gifts and secrets and passed all the heights without any hindrance. Without doubt, this goes to say that the Master (ﷺ) traveled the secret and timeless regions alone to the Divine Presence and met and saw ALLAH. 

Allama Mulla Ali Qaari (Ra) in his Shar’ha elaborates on Imam Boseeri’s verses: …..Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (ﷺ) passed all the Secret Curtains and reached the Divine Absolute Presence of the Supreme Creator

….In fact, the Master (ﷺ) transcended above the domain of space and time and entered the Station of Qaaba-Qosain and O’adna. Then, ALLAH the Supreme spoke to the Beloved what He had to Say. 

Abdul Ghani Nablusi (Ra) in Hadiqa-e-Nadiyyah Sharha Tareeqa-e-Muhammadiyyah: There were ten Meh’raajes. The tenth was from the Arsh till the Divine Presence.

Imam Ibne Hajr Makki (Ra) comments in the Shar’ha of Ummul-Qurra:

….Some A’imma state that there were ten Meh’raajes in the night of Isra. There were seven in the seven skies, the eighth, Sidratul Muntaha, the ninth in the Divine Levels and the Tenth to the Arsh. 

Imam Nawawi (Ra) in Shar’ha Muslim Shareef and Allama Muhammad bin Abdul Baaqi (Ra) in Shar’ha Mawaahib states: It is the consensus of the majority Ulama that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (ﷺ) saw ALLAH with his naked eyes on the night of Me’raaj.

Imam Ibne Khateeb Misri (Ra) states in Mawaahib Shareef that: …..this is the Madhab of the Ahle-Sunnah, Imam Abul-Hasan Ash’ari (Ra) and the majority of his followers.

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)
