Text of 'Aqeedatul Tahawiyyah : Point 39: والمعراج حق ، وقد أسرى بالنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ، وعرج بشخصه في اليقظة إلى السماء ، ثم إلى حيث شاء الله من العلا ، وأكرمه الله بما شاء ، وأوحى إليه ما أوحى ، ) ما كذب الفؤاد ما رأى ( (39) فصلى الله عليه وسلم في الآخرة والأولى . Al-Mi`raaj (the Ascent through the heavens) is true. The Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi wasallam, was taken by night and ascended in his bodily form, while awake, through the heavens, to whatever heights Allaah willed for him.
Allaah ennobled him in the way that He ennobled him and revealed to him what He revealed to him, "and his heart was not mistaken about what it saw" (al-Najm 53:11). Allaah blessed him and granted him peace in this world and the next.
Point 40: والحوض الذي أكرمه الله تعالى به غياثا لأمته حق (40) Al-Hawd, the Pool which Allaah has granted the Prophet as an honour to quench the thirst of his Community on the Day of Judgement, is true. |

Abee Muhammad ibn Maasi said: ‘Aboo Muslim al-Kajji narrated to us: “I went out and found that the hammam [a public bath] was open in the early morning. So I said to the person in-charge: ‘Has anyone entered yet?’ And he answered: ‘No.’ So I entered and immediately I opened the door, a speaker said to me: ‘Aboo Muslim aslim taslim [Abu Muslim submit and you will be saved].’ And then he started reciting poetry saying: لك الحمد إما على نعمة ‘For You [Allaah] is all the praise; either for the favours, وإما على نقمة تدفع Or for the afflictions you prevent; تشاء فتفعل ما شئته You Wish and You do as You will, وتسمع من حيث لا سمع And You hear what cannot be heard.’ |

Text of 'Aqeedatul Tahawiyyah : Point 35: والرؤية حق لأهل الجنة بغير إحاطة ولا كيفية ، كما نطق به كتاب ربنا : ( وجوه يومئذ ناضرة إلى ربها ناظرة ) ، وتفسيره على ما أراده الله تعالى وعَلِمَه ، وكل ما جاء في ذلك من الحديث الصحيح عن الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم فهو كما قال ، ومعناه على ما أراد لا ندخل في ذلك متأولين بآرائنا ، ولا متوهمين بأهوائنا ، فإنه ما سلم في دينه إلا من سلَّم لله عز وجل ولرسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، ورَدَّ عِلْم ما اشتبه عليه إلى عالمه . The Seeing of Allaah by the people of Paradise is true, without their vision being all-encompassing and without the manner of their vision being known. As the Book of Our Lord has expressed it: “Faces on that Day radiant, looking at their Lord.” [al-Qiyaamah 75:22-23] The explanation of this is as Allaah knows and wills. Everything that has come down to us about this from Allaah’s Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, in authentic traditions is as he said and intended. We should not delve into this interpreting it according to our own opinions and letting our imaginations have free rein. No one is safe in his religion unless he surrenders himself completely to Allaah, the Exalted and Glorified, and to His Messenger, may Allaah bless him and grant him peace, and unless he leaves the knowledge of things that are ambiguous to the One who knows them. |

Text of 'Aqeedatul Tahawiyyah : Point 33: وإن القرآن كلام الله ، منه بدا بلا كيفية قولا ، وأنزله على رسوله وحيا ، وصدقه المؤمنون على ذلك حقا ، وأيقنوا أنه كلام الله تعالى بالحقيقة ، ليس بمخلوق ككلام البرية ، فمن سمعه فزعم أنه كلام البشر فقد كفر ، وقد ذمه الله وعابه ، وأوعده بسقر ، حيث قال تعالى : ( سأصليه سقر ) ، فلما أوعد الله بسقر لمن قال : (إن هذا إلا قول البشر) علمنا وأيقنا أنه قول خالق البشر ، ولا يشبه قول البشر . And (we believe that) the Qur’aan is the word of Allaah. It came from Him as speech without it being possible to say how. He sent it down upon His Messenger as revelation and the believers accept it as absolute truth. They are certain that it is, in truth, the word of Allaah and was not created like the speech of human beings. So whosoever hears it and claims that it is human speech has indeed disbelieved. Allaah condemns such a person and threatens him with the Hell-Fire when He says, Exalted is He: “I will burn him in the Fire” [al-Muddaththir 74:26] When Allaah threatens with Fire those who say “This is just human speech” [al-Muddaththir 74:25] we know for certain that this is the speech of the Creator, and does not resemble the speech of mankind.
