Among the brilliant signs of God, and the apparent miracles of His Prophet, our Master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him;

The two verses of Al-Isra’ and Al-Miraj that the Prophet of guidance and Khalil al-Rahman, our master Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, were singled out for, with which God supported his Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him;

So that the verse of Al-Isra’ would manifest his argument against his people that he is the messenger of his Lord, glory be to Him, conveying to them His will from His servants, so that they would come out of the darkness of polytheism and idolatry to the light of Islam, and that the verse of Ascension would be the crowning of this great prophet with the crown of closeness, revealing the veils of the hidden things that he calls his people to believe in, so that his call will be When he saw of the great signs of his Lord with the truth of certainty and his eye, and here is his nation living in their shadows with honor and dignity, such as their pride in Islam and faith, and the honor of loving him, and imitating him, peace and blessings be upon him.

These two great verses were in support of the Prophet of God, peace and blessings be upon him, at a time when tragedies befell him.

From the death of his loving uncle, who supported him, and his honest wife with him, who consoled him with herself and her money, their death had the greatest impact of sorrow on his heart by virtue of his human nature, so God Almighty honored him with these two great verses and the major signs they included, solace for the sorrow that befell him, and in support of him That God Almighty will not lose him or hand him over to an enemy, and that he supports him and manifests his religion over all religion, even if the polytheists hate it.

And for the great ones, God Almighty, may be noted in the sorcerer of his book, and he said about the Isra. A choice of his Prophet in it, and that the purpose of that is for him to see with his own eyes what God Almighty willed to show him of the verses of the unseen that he knew as news, so that he sees them by looking at them, and narrates them in reality.

He said about the mirag "and the star if he is the owner of your owner and what is ignorant, and what he is and what he says," he said. And this honor was not attained by any of the servants of God Almighty before him, neither a sent prophet nor a close angel. His occultation, which he used to reveal to him, and reveal to him the veils of his upper pavilions, to see from the great signs of his Lord, so that this selection and honor would indicate to him his great status with Him, glory be to Him.That is why he gathered his prophets and messengers during his transitions in the Al-Aqsa Mosque and in the highest heavens, they welcomed him most welcome, and congratulated him for the great honor he received.

These verses by which God Almighty supported his greatest beloved, our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, his family and his companions, are brilliant verses by which his great status was known among the prophets and messengers, as indicated by the Holy Qur’an by saying: And he raised some of them in degrees, and the one whom God raised in degrees is our Prophet whom God Almighty raised to these stations, and it is an elevation of his law, and his nation after him.

Whatever the date of these major verses, the Lawgiver did not specify them precisely.

Because the intent of mentioning it is to clarify the status of our Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, with his Lord, and mentioning the time does not entail much benefit;

However, the popular and well-known saying that many of the scholars said was that it was in this sacred month, and on the 27th of it.

So if this date comes, it renews in the soul of the loving Muslim with great veneration and reverence for the one who remembers him, peace and blessings be upon him, and renews in it the meanings of joy by belonging to him, and stirs up the latent of deep love for him, and motivates the soul to follow him, that is why we find Muslims in the east and west of the earth do not miss this remembrance The great, by inflaming feelings towards their Mujtaba Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and they see that they are blessed to follow him, as he, peace and blessings be upon him, used to say: “I am your fortune among the prophets, and you are my fortune among the nations.”

Oh God, keep us alive according to his Sunnah, our nation according to his creed, and resurrect us in his clan and under his banner.
