The Ruling on the Night Journey and the Ascension with the Soul and the Body
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, inform them: Does the matter of permission proceed in this manner, that is, is it a matter of assumption, or a framework, or something else?
Answer:
No, both. Both the Night Journey (Isra) and the Ascension (Mi'raj) were with the soul and the body. It was not a gift only, nor was it with the soul only. All of this is incorrect, because Allah said, "He took His servant on a journey," and "servant" is a name for the combination of the soul and the body. If it had been a dream, no one would have denied it, because everyone acknowledges dreams. Yes.
