Description
The Isra wal Miraj, the Night Journey and Heavenly Ascent of the Prophet Muhammad, is one of the most extraordinary events in all of human history. In a single night, he was transported from Makkah to Jerusalem, then ascended through the seven heavens to a distance of two bows' length from Allah.
This work traces the journey in detail, drawing on the Quran, authentic hadith, and classical commentaries, examining what was seen, what was spoken, and what the night means for every Muslim who follows in his footsteps. Essential reading for the month of Rajab and throughout the year.
