hijab brother you raised the question that what is the God's relationship with time .. I mean for me this is simple ... Time is creature (creation) of Allah

[@djmcwj7369]

Yeah, nice way of explaining it. For me it's clear that Allah is outside of time, just how he is outstie of the creation. Time was made for us to make the test and this world possible for us to kind of fathom. Time is not something that Allah needs. And everytime he speaks about days and years etc. It's for our understanding rather then a real division of Allah's time. Allahu Alam that's just how I understood it.

Isra and Miraj journey Firstly, it was the majority view of the prophet’s followers, that it was a real journey and not some mental state or a spiritual journey. This narrative can only develop by prophet’s description of the event itself in the Qur’an and hadith literature. We have to reject it was a mental state because Isra is to understood as transported. In Surah al- najm the Miraj is can be under from the ascend and descend. The context is the Prophet lying place was still warm upon his return, his claim of drinking the water and the runaway camel he retrieved. The only way to explain the proof is in the context of claim of the prophet it was a real journey and hence a miraculous journey refuting the apostasy of those who rejected it including Modern secularist Muslims. Isra and miraj the journey and accent is related to the transcendental worlds of different spatio-temporal dimensions of existence. In fact it’s situation is similar to the accent of Jesus body into the heaven to return to this world at that moment when histor culminates in Jerusalem. The physical body occupies this lowest spatio-temporal dimension of existence so it cannot be a physical ascent to Allah. Because Allah is non-spatial, whilst closer to you than your jugular vein and encompasses everything. The only way to explain it is by the transformation of the physical body into it’s transcendental form which by definition is the part of existence which transcends space time. Also the prophet never mentioned the participation of the physical body. Allah transformed the personality of the prophet from the physical to the transcendtal dimension of existence. These are dimensions of the human personality developed from light. The isra and Miraj involved the personality of the prophet from one dimension of existence to another. Parapsychology may explain it to be a mental state but we know from Surah Al- Nur: Allah is the light of the samawat: plural for multiple spatio-temporal dimensions and the earth. Meaning the origin of everything created is light - that it is a light which produces energy and gradually transforming into matter. The first thing Allah created was a particle of light in intense motion and from t emerged all of creation. Since all matter is from light science needs to discover how to reverse the transformation of light into matter. Here lies the scientific explanation of how physical body of the prophet miraculously transformed during the Isra and Miraj. We need to understand the process of creation through the transformation of light mentioned in surah Al Nur and explained in Surah At Talaq: At-Talaq 65:12-12 (12) اَللّٰهُ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمٰوٰتٍ وَّمِنَ الْاَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ ؕ يَتَنَزَّلُ الْاَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوْۤا اَنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ ۙ وَّاَنَّ اللّٰهَ قَدْ اَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا It is Allāh who has created seven spatio-temporal dimensions or different worlds of space and time, and of the material earth or matter including our body, is the like of them (meaning potentially seven dimension of space time existence) command descends among them so you may know that Allāh is over all things competent and that Allāh has encompassed all things in knowledge. And we know from Surah Al Mulk that they are all interconnected. So now look the verses of Surah isra and Najm in this context and you will realise that his body was miraculously transformed so he can travel to Al-Aqsa masjid connected to the seven spatial-temporal dimensions and the accent to Allah through the samawat. We know during this event there was no structure of Aqsa masjid in Jerusalem so the masjid was the part that transcendental space time and yet connected to the physical Al- aqsa that was a dump yard at the time. The prophet’s claim of drinking the water and his help to retrieve the camel was Allah’s miracle of his personality traversing in the journey from this realm to the other transcendental realms back and forth in a moment, SubhanAllah! Surah Najum 1-8 informs us the Prophet reached the lote tree being the furthest point that is boundary between creator and creation. The analogy is of the point of the two semi circles touch. That is the miracle of the prophet Allah blessed Him with. The prophet said to his followers the Salah is similar to the Miraj. So by the virtue of the prophet’s miraculous journey Allah has permitted from his followers to experience a mini Miraj in Salah. Rather some Muslims have decided to argue is s parapsychological explanation that the apostates were taunting him of. This is a true test of faith because if you believe it was a mental state your Salah experience will be no different than a person doing yoga. In Surah Al-mulk Allah is telling us to repeatedly see within the context of return Al-Mulk 67:3-4 (3) الَّذِيْ خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمٰوٰتٍ طِبَاقًا ؕ مَا تَرٰي فِيْ خَلْقِ الرَّحْمٰنِ مِنْ تَفٰوُتٍ ؕ فَارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ ۙ هَلْ تَرٰي مِنْ فُطُوْرٍ (4) ثُمَّ ارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ كَرَّتَيْنِ يَنْقَلِبْ اِلَيْكَ الْبَصَرُ خَاسِئًا وَّهُوَ حَسِيْرٌ (3) [And] who created seven spatio-temporal dimensional layers interlinked. You do not see in the creation of the Most Merciful any inconsistency. So return, vision do you see any breaks? (4) Then return, vision twice again. Vision will return to you humbled while it is fatigued. The preposition before the word return may indicate to the context of salah is Miraj for the believers then what you can see in your miraj is what Allah is telling you repeatedly to experience in Al-mulk and more if Allah wills. This is at the heart of Islamic spirituality but in the modern age the secular mind is disengaged from the samawat and reduced to the Ard or the material matter of spatio-temporal existence.

Does the other Prophets being on different heavens mean that they were also honored with the "Mi'raj"? And does their position in the heavens signify their 'closeness' with Allah?

[@Iamfsaly]

Jannah is not in (السبع سماوات) the 7 dimensions , it’s above it and some scholars say jahnnam “hell” is in the 7th dimension "السماء السابعة” (surah al talaq 12 ) Allah it is He Who created seven heavens, and, like them, the earth.

أخي محمد حجاب ،الإسراء والمعراج معجزة ،ومحاولتك الدؤوبة لشرحها وتقريبها بالنظر ألى ما صل اليه العلم فاشلة،أخي ألا تظن أنك تسيء لجيل الصحابة الذين آمنوا بالحدث مع بعدهم عن هذه التكنلوجيا ،هذا أولا ،ثانيا الإسراء والمعراج لم أبدا حدثا خادما للرسالة ،ولكي أشرح أكثر ،أقول ،إن الله سبحانه وتعالى كان يؤيد رسله السابقين بالمعجزات حتى يصدقونهم أقوامهم ،وكانت هذه المعجزات مرئية ،أنما حدث الاسراء والمعراج كان خبرا ،اتى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم لقومه في صباح اليوم التالي وأخبر هم بالذي بالحدث ،ما ألذي جرى ،تقول كتب السيرة ،لقد أرتد كثير من الناس . أكثر من ذلك ،حين أطلع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم عمته صفية عنه ،يعني عن الاسراء والمعراج ،نصحته ألا يخبر القوم عن هذا الامر ،لكنه ابى صلى الله عليه وسلم . لذلك والى يومنا هذا لن تستطيع أن تقنع أحدا بالايمان بمعجزة الاسراء والمعراج إلا ان يشرح الله صدره لذلك ،أخي محمد الاسراء والمعراج مقام علي نالة الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم ،ومكافئة إذا صح التعبير من الله لرسوله الكريم بعد ما لاقاه من قومه ومن سفهاء الطائف ،لان الرحلة كانت بعد رجوعه من الطائف ،وكأن الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول له ،يا محمد ،إن لم يعرف قدرك أهل ،فهاهو قدرك عند أهل السماء ،والسلام

Your view contradicts Quran, chapter 17 verse 93 which clearly implies that if prophet Muhammad ascended into the heavens this would make more than human! There are actually more problems than this but since i expect this comment to be deleted i wont bother with them. If it stays then i will write some more perhaps.

[@user-ib9of6dm5n]

It’s not deleted, and you need to explain the view and your opposing evidence with time stamps

[@info786]

[@info786]

@@user-ib9of6dm5n for starters, quote "Your view contradicts Quran, chapter 17 verse 93 which clearly implies that if prophet Muhammad ascended into the heavens this would make more than human!" You never responded. Can Muhammad ascend into to the sky according to 17 93, yes or no? No he will not. This only leaves the possibility of non-physical ascension, i.e. vision/dream only.

[@owl8930]

@@info786 ayah 93 is part of a chain of ayahs, starting from ayah 90. The people said they won't believe unless the prophet commits wonders beyond human capability. It doesn't mean that Allah is unable to commit any of them. your interpretation is flawed. Anyway, your comment is still up and you havent posted the problems you said you would. why should anyone listen to you?
