Hadith of the night journey

376. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Abaan Bin Usmaan, from Hadeed, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah عليه الصلاة والسلام has said: ‘When the ascension (Me’raaj) took place with the Rasool Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, in the morning he صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم sat and narrated it to them (his صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم companions). So they said to him صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, ‘Describe for us Bayt Al-Maqdas’. So he صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم described it for them, as he صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم had seen it during the night, therefore they remained vague about it. So Jibraeel came to him صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم and said: ‘Look over there!’ So he صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم looked towards Al-Bayt (Al-Maqdas) and described it to them whilst looking at it. Then he صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم described for them the caravan, which was in between them and Syria. Then said: ‘These were the camels of the Clan of so and so and will be arriving with the rise of the sun, led by a red camel’. And the Quresyh then sent a man upon a horse to turn these back, but it still arrived with the rise of the sun. Qurtat Bin Abd Amro said, ‘O a grief that I don’t be for you a trunk (strong enough) when you صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم claims that you صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم came to Bait Al-Maqdis and returned in the same night (O Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم!).
