Example: Moses was the prophet of the most high. Aaron was the Most High Priest as it was only he who could enter the Holy of Holies and only once a year at that.
That's interesting seeing that Aaron was the one who fashioned a Gold Calf for the people to worship while Moses was up the mountain.
In summary, Aaron who fashioned a false God could enter the Holy of Holies, but Moses who came down from the Mountain with his face shining from the presence of the Lord could not. Go figure.
The prophet Elijah ascended into the heavens.
No, the Christians do not recognise Mohammed as any kind of prophet.
Elijah.
The Prophet Samuel, after King Saul had him raised from the dead
after the death of his parents, his grandfather, abdul muttalib , raised the prophet. after his death, his uncle abu talib took over his charge..:)
It is the Miracle of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) ascendancy to the Heavens.
It was not by prophet Muhammad (PBUH) choice but per God (Allah in Arabic) command to him. It was to honor prophet Muhammad, to confirm support to him, and to strengthen the faith of his followers. refer to related question below.
When prophet Muhammad was supported by God (Allah) with His miracle of going from Mecca to Al-Quds (Jersalem) and then ascending to the Heavens in one night, the unbelievers rushed to Abu Bakr and told him what they heard from the prophet. Then, Abu Bakr told them if the prophet said so then it is true. If we believe him in what revealed to him by God from the Heavens through the Angel Gabriel (Jibril) then we should believe in all what he says. Then the prophet titled him as Al-Sadique which is an Arabic word that means the absolute truthful.
Hazrat Abu-TalibWhen Abdul-Mutlib (a.s.) died, Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) uncle, Abu-Talib raised Him. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) grew up in the household of His uncle, who loved his Nephew the most.
InshaAllah my answer is correct, it is in surah najm where the Prophet (S) went up to the heavens and spoke with Allah (SWT), as my quran teacher explained, He didnt see him but he spoke with him and there was only a short distance between Him and our beloved Prophet (S)
Jerusalem is considered the holiest city not only in Judaism and Christianity but also in Islam. It is believed that prophet Solomon built his temple (that was destroyed later on by the Romans) in Jerusalem. However, the city of Jerusalem is also central to Christianity where prophet Jesus was living. It is also central for Muslims as it was the first direction that they face during prayers and prophet Muhammad was raised to the Heavens (during the miracle of Israa and Mii'raaj) from Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa located in Jerusalem and returned back on the same night.
Yes. The Muslims believe in all the holy Prophets (May peace be upon them all). They do believe in Hazrat Jesus Christ (AS) a Prophet. He is also called by the Name of Messiah in the holy Qur'an. He was miraculously born to Virgin Marry (AS). He performed many miracles. The Jews turned against him and tried to get him crucified at the hand of the Roman Governor, but Almighty God raised him alive to heavens. He will descent from heavens before Qiyamat. He will marry, have children, die a natural death, and will be buried near the grave of the holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAW). He will rise up on the Day of Judgment with him
