9) The Wonders of the Awliya’ of Allah (swt) Are
Accurate
Belief in the wonders (karamah) of the Awliya’ of Allah (swt),
the extraordinary states to which Allah (swt) gives rise by
their hand, and the discoveries they make in various spheres of
knowledge are among the essence of the Ahl al-Sunnah’s con-
victions.
10) The Prophet’s (saas) Miraculous Journey
According to the Qur’an and the hadiths, our Prophet (saas)
ascended to a world beyond the heavens in both body and
soul. It is revealed in the Qur’an that our Prophet’s (saas)
going to Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem) is an absolute truth, and
reliable hadiths confirm that he rose to the skies.
Glory be to Him Who took His servant on a night jour-
ney from the Masjid al-Haram [in Makkah] to the
Masjid al-Aqsa [in Jerusalem], whose surroundings We
have blessed, in order to show him some of Our signs.
He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing. (Surat al-Isra’, 1)
In order to create corruption, the deniers and hypocrites,
who did not believe in this miracle, dared to mock it, and tried
to spread this corruption all over Makkah, for they told every-
one that they met about it. One of them asked Abu Bakr (ra):
“Muhammad (saas) claims to have gone from Makkah to
Jerusalem in a single night. What do you say?” With his usual
exemplary trust and submission, Abu Bakr (ra) ended this
spreading corruption by replying: “If he says so, then it is
true.”
