Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: And 'Abdan said: "He informed us that 'Abdullah informed us that Yunus informed us from al-Zuhri, who said: Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) used to narrate that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih al-Bukhari 1636
The Shaykh : Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest. This is among the signs of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) that He split his chest with a true splitting and washed it with the water of Zamzam for its blessing, then closed it. It was a procedure in less than a night, a difficult procedure, and without anesthesia, but it appears, and Allah knows best, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) did not feel pain. It cannot be said that this is of the nature of a dream and has no reality, because the original understanding is that it is a reality.
The roof of my house was made open while I was at Makkah (on the night of Mi'raj) and Jibril descended. He opened up my chest and washed it with the water of Zamzam. The he brought the golden tray full of Wisdom and Belief and poured it in my chest and then closed it. The he took hold of my hand and ascended to the nearest heaven. Jibril told the gatekeeper of the nearest heaven to open the gate. The gatekeeper asked, "Who is it?" Jibril replied, "I am Jibril."
فرج سقفي وأنا بمكة فنزل جبريل عليه السلام ففرج صدري ثم غسله بماء زمزم ثم جاء بطست من ذهب ممتلئ حكمة وإيمانا فأفرغها في صدري ثم أطبقه ثم أخذ بيدي فعرج إلى السماء الدنيا قال جبريل لخازن السماء الدنيا افتح قال من هذا قال جبريلThe Shaykh : Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest.
