00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.359
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:12.970
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

00:00:12.970 --> 00:00:21.129
A Summary of the Prophetic biography.

00:00:21.129 --> 00:00:26.289
The return of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, to Makkah.

00:00:26.289 --> 00:00:30.460
And his informing the people of his Night Journey.

00:00:30.460 --> 00:00:36.219
Then Jibril, peace be upon him, descended with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

00:00:36.259 --> 00:00:39.500
From the heavens to the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:41.219
Then he mounted the Buraq.

00:00:41.219 --> 00:00:44.659
And returned to Makkah before the morning.

00:00:44.659 --> 00:00:48.500
Imam Ahmad narrated in his Musnad with a sound chain of transmission.

00:00:48.500 --> 00:00:52.240
On the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said:

00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:56.960
The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was taken on a Night Journey to Jerusalem.

00:00:56.960 --> 00:00:59.359
Then he returned that same night.

00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:05.280
He told them of his journey, the signs of Jerusalem, and their caravan.

00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:07.959
Imam Ahmad also narrated in his Musnad,

00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:11.959
As did Ibn Abi Shaybah in his Musannaf, with a sound chain of transmission,

00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.359
On the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said:

00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:19.040
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:21.719
"On the night I was taken on the Night Journey,

00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:25.560
And I awoke in Makkah, I was distressed by my situation,

00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:28.939
Knowing that the people would call me a liar."

00:01:28.939 --> 00:01:31.659
So he sat alone and sorrowful.

00:01:32.579 --> 00:01:35.819
Then the enemy of Allah, Abu Jahl, passed by him.

00:01:35.819 --> 00:01:38.299
He came and sat beside him.

00:01:38.299 --> 00:01:40.780
He asked him mockingly,

00:01:40.780 --> 00:01:42.939
"Has anything happened?"

00:01:42.939 --> 00:01:47.500
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, replied, "Yes."

00:01:47.500 --> 00:01:49.390
He asked, "What is it?"

00:01:49.390 --> 00:01:53.189
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:01:53.189 --> 00:01:55.629
"I was taken on a Night Journey tonight."

00:01:55.629 --> 00:01:57.510
He asked, "To where?"

00:01:57.510 --> 00:02:00.909
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:02:00.950 --> 00:02:03.379
"To Jerusalem."

00:02:03.379 --> 00:02:07.540
He asked, "And then you awoke among us this morning?"

00:02:07.540 --> 00:02:11.900
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, replied, "Yes."

00:02:11.900 --> 00:02:15.620
He did not show that he disbelieved him,

00:02:15.620 --> 00:02:17.780
For fear that he would deny the hadith,

00:02:17.780 --> 00:02:20.099
If he called his people to hear it.

00:02:20.099 --> 00:02:23.219
He said, "What if I called your people,

00:02:23.219 --> 00:02:26.020
Would you tell them what you told me?"

00:02:26.020 --> 00:02:30.479
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said, "Yes."

00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:31.800
So he said,

00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.120
"Come, O people of Banu Ka'b ibn Lu'ayy!"

00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:36.800
Until he said,

00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.360
The gatherings stirred toward him,

00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:42.740
And they came until they sat with them both.

00:02:42.740 --> 00:02:43.780
He said,

00:02:43.780 --> 00:02:46.979
"Tell your people what you told me."

00:02:46.979 --> 00:02:50.860
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:02:50.860 --> 00:02:53.460
"I was taken on a Night Journey tonight."

00:02:53.460 --> 00:02:55.419
They asked, "To where?"

00:02:55.419 --> 00:02:58.819
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:02:58.860 --> 00:03:01.139
"To Jerusalem."

00:03:01.139 --> 00:03:02.259
They asked,

00:03:02.259 --> 00:03:05.300
"And then you awoke among us this morning?"

00:03:05.300 --> 00:03:09.659
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, replied, "Yes."

00:03:09.659 --> 00:03:10.780
He said,

00:03:10.780 --> 00:03:17.620
"Some began to clap their hands, and others placed their hands on their heads in astonishment at the lie."

00:03:17.620 --> 00:03:18.740
He said,

00:03:18.740 --> 00:03:22.219
"Can you describe the mosque to us?"

00:03:22.219 --> 00:03:27.259
Among the people were those who had traveled to that land and seen the mosque.

00:03:27.300 --> 00:03:31.099
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:03:31.099 --> 00:03:33.139
"So I began to describe it.

00:03:33.139 --> 00:03:34.979
I continued to describe it,

00:03:34.979 --> 00:03:38.180
Until some of the details became unclear to me.

00:03:38.180 --> 00:03:41.060
Then the mosque was brought before me while I was looking at it,

00:03:41.060 --> 00:03:43.979
Until it was placed in front of the house of 'Iqal,

00:03:43.979 --> 00:03:45.620
Or 'Aqil.

00:03:45.620 --> 00:03:48.740
So I described it while I was looking at it."

00:03:48.740 --> 00:03:50.300
The people said,

00:03:50.300 --> 00:03:51.699
"As for the description,

00:03:51.699 --> 00:03:54.419
By Allah, he has hit the mark."

00:03:54.419 --> 00:03:57.979
In the narration of Imam Muslim in his Sahih,

00:03:57.979 --> 00:04:01.580
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:04:01.580 --> 00:04:03.900
"I found myself in the Hijr,

00:04:03.900 --> 00:04:06.979
And the Quraysh were asking me about my Night Journey.

00:04:06.979 --> 00:04:11.939
They asked me about things regarding Jerusalem that I had not firmly memorized,

00:04:11.939 --> 00:04:16.420
And I felt a distress I had never felt before.

00:04:16.420 --> 00:04:17.620
He said,

00:04:17.620 --> 00:04:20.819
Then Allah raised it for me so that I could look at it,

00:04:20.819 --> 00:04:25.560
And they did not ask me about anything except that I informed them of it."

00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:28.800
Imam Bukhari narrated in his Sahih,

00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:32.439
On the authority of Jabir ibn 'Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with them both,

00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:37.279
That he heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, say:

00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:39.839
"When the Quraysh called me a liar,

00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:41.519
I stood in the Hijr,

00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:44.560
And Allah revealed Jerusalem to me,

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:50.579
So I began to inform them of its signs while I was looking at it."

00:04:50.620 --> 00:04:55.810
A Summary of the Prophetic biography.

00:04:55.810 --> 00:05:00.660
Authored by Sheikh Musa ibn Rashid al-'Azimi.

00:05:00.660 --> 00:05:04.410
Presented by the Mawaddah Association,

00:05:04.410 --> 00:05:07.540
In the Kingdom of Bahrain.

00:05:07.540 --> 00:05:14.420
If the longing of the worlds for some has grown long,

00:05:14.420 --> 00:05:21.480
Then the longing for you has no limit.

00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:28.100
May Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,

00:05:28.100 --> 00:05:34.379
And as long as your mention remains,

00:05:34.379 --> 00:05:36.259
Healing.
