وَالمِعْرَاجُ
حَقٌّ. وَقَدْ أُسْرِيَ بـِالنَّبـِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَعُرِجَ بـِشَخْصِهِ فِي الْيَقَظَةِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، ثُمَّ إِلَى حَيْثُ
شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى مِنَ العُلَى،
وَأَكْرَمَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى بـِمَا شَاءَ،
فَأَوْحَى
إِلَى عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَى (مَا
کذب الفواد ما رای) فصلی اللھ علیھ وسلم فِی الاخرۃ والاولی
39. Al-Mi`raj (the Ascent through the
heavens) is true. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was
taken by night and ascended in his bodily form, while awake, through the
heavens, to whatever heights Allah willed for him. Allah ennobled him in the
way that He ennobled him and revealed to him what He revealed to him, "and
his heart was not mistaken about what it saw" (al-Najm 53:11). Allah
blessed him and granted him peace in this world and the next.
وَالْحَوْضُ
الَّذِيْ أَكْرَمَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى بـِهِ غِيَاثَاً لأُمَّتِهِ حَقٌّ
40.
Al-Hawd, the Pool which Allah has granted the Prophet as an honour to quench
the thirst of his Community on the Day of Judgement, is true.
وَالشَّفَاعَةُ
الَّتِي ادَّخَرَهَا اللَّهُ لَهُمْ كَمَا رُوِيَ فِيْ الأَخْبَارِ
41.
Al-Shafa`a, the intercession which is stored up for Muslims, is true, as
related in the hadiths.
