Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What is the ruling on celebrating the night of the Isra and Mi'raj? And is it true that it is on the twenty-seventh of this month, the month of Rajab?

Answer:
It is not established which night the Isra and Mi'raj took place on, and this is a mercy from Allah, because if it were established, it would become a focus of attention for the people of innovation. Allah concealed it, Glorified and Exalted is He. We believe in the Isra and Mi'raj, but we do not assert which night it occurred on, and it is not our right to investigate which night it was. What is the benefit? Yes.
