Curated by: Let the Quran Speak (115 videos)
Dr. Shabir Ally unpacks the often misunderstood Quranic verse about the Prophet Muhammad’s night journey and ascension (17:1), highlighting the linguistic shifts in the verse that suggest a subtle dialogue between the speaker and God. He explains that some early Muslims viewed the journey as a spiritual vision rather than a physical one, noting that the Quran itself does not explicitly say the Prophet’s body was transported. The term "abd" (servant) used in the verse, he argues, does not necessarily imply a bodily journey, as it can refer to the soul as well. While many Muslims accept the journey as a miraculous physical event, others, seeking a rational explanation, interpret it as a visionary experience. Dr. Shabir emphasizes that both views are valid within the tradition, and cautions against relying solely on later biographical literature to interpret the Quran.
