Book Name:Meraj kay Waqiyat

‘Arsh and Kursi we do not know but we have seen Bayt-ul-Muqaddas, tell us anything (any signs/particulars) of this place, therefore Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ divided this Mi’raaj into two parts: One from (Masjid-ul-Haraam) to Bayt-ul-Muqaddas, (second) from Bayt-ul-Muqaddas to ahead of ‘Arsh so that people could get information about first part of Mi’raaj with evidences.

When particulars of Bayt-ul-Muqaddas were asked so the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was a little worried; though the Prophet of Rahmah, the Intercessor of Ummah صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم entered Bayt-ul-Muqaddas, he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم did not pay attention to its particulars. Furthermore, it was a dark night. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ commanded Sayyiduna Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام so Sayyiduna Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام lifted Bayt-ul-Muqaddas on his wings and placed it near the house of Sayyiduna Aqeel رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ in Makkah. He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم kept looking at it and answering their questions. (Remember) To bring Bayt-ul-Muqaddas to the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم after lifting is your miracle as the throne of Bilqees was presented in the court after being lifted is the miracle of Sayyiduna Sulayman عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّنَا وَعَـلَيْهِ الصَّلٰوةُ وَالسَّلَام.

Anyway, when the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم answered all the questions of polytheists of Makkah regarding Bayt-ul-Muqaddas so since they were testing this miracle through their wisdom instead of believing in it and even they were trying to prove it false out of their malice and enmity, they started asking about the signs/particulars of Bayt-ul-Muqaddas and despite being disgraced they remained obstinate and for further test they started asking about the caravan that went to Egypt from Makkah Mukarramah for trade.

He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم told them that the caravan was found between so-and-so place of blessed Makkah and Egypt; it had so-and-so number of men walking and so-and-so were on camels. They then asked a question from the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم as to when they would enter Makkah Mukarramah upon their return; so he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied that the caravan would enter Makkah Mukarramah on Wednesday; a grey-colour camel, whose hessian beneath saddle is black, will be in the front of them, loaded with two sacks. Whatever the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated the same thing
