Sunan an-Nasai 451 (Book 5, Hadith 4) #15059
The Night Journey and its Blessings

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was taken on a Night Journey to the sixth heaven, where he was given three things: the five daily prayers, the last verses of Surah Al-Baqarah, and assurance that those who die without associating anything with Allah will be forgiven.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said: "When the Messenger of Allah was taken on the Night Journey, he came to Sidrat Al-Muntaha, which is in the sixth heaven. That is where everything that comes up from below ends, and where everything that comes down from above, until it is taken from it. Allah says: When what covered the lote-tree did cover it! 1 He said: "It was moths of gold. And I was given three things: The five daily prayers, the last verses of Surah Al-Baqarah, and whoever of my Ummah dies without associating anything with Allah will be forgiven for Al-Muqhimat". 2 1 An-Najm 53:16. 2 "The sins of the worst magnitude that drag one into the Fire". (An-Nihayah)
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ، عَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ، عَنْ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ لَمَّا أُسْرِيَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ انْتُهِيَ بِهِ إِلَى سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى وَهِيَ فِي السَّمَاءِ السَّادِسَةِ وَإِلَيْهَا يَنْتَهِي مَا عُرِجَ بِهِ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا وَإِلَيْهَا يَنْتَهِي مَا أُهْبِطَ بِهِ مِنْ فَوْقِهَا حَتَّى يُقْبَضَ مِنْهَا قَالَ ‏{‏ إِذْ يَغْشَى السِّدْرَةَ مَا يَغْشَى ‏}‏ قَالَ فَرَاشٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَأُعْطِيَ ثَلاَثًا الصَّلَوَاتُ الْخَمْسُ وَخَوَاتِيمُ سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ وَيُغْفَرُ لِمَنْ مَاتَ مِنْ أُمَّتِهِ لاَ يُشْرِكُ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا الْمُقْحِمَاتُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about an incredible journey that Prophet Muhammad took one night. He was taken to a place called Sidrat Al-Muntaha in the sixth heaven. There he received three gifts from Allah - five daily prayers, last verses of Surah Al-Baqarah, and assurance that those who die without associating anything with Allah will be forgiven for their sins even if they are very serious ones. These gifts are blessings from Allah for us Muslims as they help us stay connected to Him through prayer and His words in Quran. They also give us hope that we can still be forgiven even if we make mistakes or do wrong things in our lives as long as we don't associate anyone else with Him or worship anyone else besides Him.
