The Means of the Night Journey and the Ascension

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Is the Ascension on al-Buraq, or on a ladder by which he ascends to the sky where he saw?

Answer:
The Night Journey was on al-Buraq, but as for the Ascension, it was on a means known only to Allah, on a ladder between
the heaven and earth? There is no deity exceptالسَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا
[Fatir 35:3]
Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He.
