The account of the Ascension
[ عَوْدٌ إلَى حَدِيثِ الْخُدْرِيِّ عَنْ الْمِعْرَاجِ ] ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إلَى حَدِيثِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَصْعَدَنِي إلَى السَّمَاءِ الثَّانِيَةِ فَإِذَا فِيهَا ابْنَا الْخَالَةِ: عِيسَى بْنُ مَرْيَمَ، وَيَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَصْعَدَنِي إلَى السَّمَاءِ الثَّالِثَةِ، فَإِذَا فِيهَا رَجُلٌ صُورَتُهُ كَصُورَةِ الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا أَخُوكَ يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَصْعَدَنِي إلَى السَّمَاءِ الرَّابِعَةِ، فَإِذَا فِيهَا رَجُلٌ فَسَأَلْتُهُ: مَنْ هُوَ ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا إدْرِيسُ - قَالَ: يَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: وَرَفَعْنَاهُ مَكَانًا عَلِيًّا - قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَصْعَدَنِي إلَى السَّمَاءِ الْخَامِسَةِ فَإِذَا فِيهَا كَهْلٌ أَبْيَضُ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ، عَظِيمُ الْعُثْنُونِ لَمْ أَرَ كَهْلًا أَجْمَلَ مِنْهُ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ ؟ قَالَ هَذَا الْمُحَبَّبُ: فِي قَوْمِهِ هَارُونُ بْنُ عِمْرَانَ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَصْعَدَنِي إلَى السَّمَاءِ السَّادِسَةِ فَإِذَا فِيهَا رَجُلٌ آدَمُ طَوِيلٌ أَقْنَى كَأَنَّهُ مِنْ رِجَالِ شَنُوءَةَ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ مَنْ هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا أَخُوكَ مُوسَى بْنُ عِمْرَانَ. ثُمَّ أَصْعَدَنِي إلَى السَّمَاءِ السَّابِعَةِ، فَإِذَا فِيهَا كَهْلٌ جَالِسٌ عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ إلَى بَابِ الْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ، يَدْخُلُهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ فِيهِ إلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لَمْ أَرَ رَجُلًا أَشْبَهَ بِصَاحِبِكُمْ، وَلَا صَاحِبُكُمْ أَشْبَهُ بِهِ مِنْهُ. قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا أَبُوكَ إبْرَاهِيمُ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ دَخَلَ بِي الْجَنَّةَ فَرَأَيْتُ فِيهَا جَارِيَةً لَعْسَاءَ فَسَأَلْتهَا: لِمَنْ أَنْتِ ؟ وَقَدْ أَعْجَبَتْنِي حِينَ رَأَيْتُهَا ؟ فَقَالَتْ: لِزَيْدِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ، فَبَشَّرَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَيْدَ بْنَ حَارِثَةَ قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَمِنْ حَدِيثِ ( عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ) بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ، عَنْ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فِيمَا بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ لَمْ يَصْعَدْ بِهِ إلَى سَمَاءٍ مِنْ السَّمَوَاتِ إلَّا قَالُوا لَهُ حِينَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي دُخُولِهَا: مَنْ هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ ؟ فَيَقُولُ: مُحَمَّدٌ ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: أَوَقَدْ بُعِثَ ؟ فَيَقُولُ: نَعَمْ ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: حَيَّاهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ أَخٍ وَصَاحِبٍ حَتَّى انْتَهَى بِهِ إلَى السَّمَاءِ السَّابِعَةِ، ثُمَّ انْتَهَى بِهِ إلَى رَبِّهِ، فَفَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ
Translation
✧ [Return to the hadith of al-Khudrī about the Miʿrāj] Then he returned to the hadith of Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī. He said: Then he took me up to the second heaven, and there were the two cousins: ʿĪsā b. Maryam and Yaḥyā b. Zakariyyā. He said: Then he took me up to the third heaven, and there was a man whose appearance was like the moon on the night of the full moon. He said: I said, "Who is this, O Jibrīl?" He said, "This is your brother Yūsuf b. Yaʿqūb." He said: Then he took me up to the fourth heaven, and there was a man, so I asked him, "Who is he?" He said, "This is Idrīs." He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ says: "And We raised him to a high station" (Q 19:57). He said: Then he took me up to the fifth heaven, and there was an elderly man with white hair and beard, great in beard, and I had never seen a more handsome elderly man than him. He said: I said, "Who is this, O Jibrīl?" He said, "This is the beloved one among his people, Hārūn b. ʿImrān." He said: Then he took me up to the sixth heaven, and there was a dark-skinned, tall man with a hooked nose, as if he were from the men of Shanūʾah. I said to him, "Who is this, O Jibrīl?" He said, "This is your brother Mūsā b. ʿImrān." Then he took me up to the seventh heaven, and there was an elderly man seated on a chair beside the door of the Much-Frequented House (al-Bayt al-Maʿmūr), into which seventy thousand angels enter every day, and they do not return to it until the Day of Resurrection. I had never seen a man more resembling your companion (the Prophet ﷺ), nor did your companion resemble anyone more than him. He said: I said, "Who is this, O Jibrīl?" He said, "This is your father Ibrāhīm." He said: Then he entered me into Paradise, and I saw in it a dark-lipped maiden, and I asked her, "To whom do you belong?" And she had pleased me when I saw her. She said, "To Zayd b. Ḥārithah." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave glad tidings of her to Zayd b. Ḥārithah. Ibn Isḥāq said: And from the hadith of ʿAbd Allāh b. Masʿūd ؓ, from the Prophet ﷺ, in what has reached me, that Jibrīl did not ascend with him to any heaven of the heavens except that they said to him when he sought permission to enter it: "Who is this, O Jibrīl?" He would say, "Muḥammad." They would say, "Has he been sent?" He would say, "Yes." They would say, "May Allah greet him as a brother and companion," until he reached with him the seventh heaven, then he took him to his Lord, and He imposed upon him fifty prayers every day.
