Ascension
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate.
Limitless in His glory is He Who transported His servant by night from the Inviolable House of Worship to the Remote House of Worship, the environs of which We had blessed, so that We might show him some of Our signs: for, indeed, He is All-Hearing, All-Seeing
What are the fruits and benefits of the Ascension?
This fruit has brought to jinn and man as a gift the fundamentals of Islam, and first and foremost the prescribed prayers, which constitute those things pleasing to the Sustainer, the Ruler of Pre-Eternity and Post-Eternity, Who is the Maker of beings, Owner of the universe, and Sustainer of all the worlds. Discovering the things that please Him is so engaging and brings such happiness that it cannot be described. For how eager is everyone to find out, from a distance, the desires of a powerful benefactor or generous king, and if they find out, how delighted they are. They say longingly: "If only there was some means of communication so that I could speak with that personage directly. If only I could learn what he wants of me. If only I knew what would please him that I could do."
And so let man understand just how necessary it is to be desirous and eager to discover the wishes and pleasure of the Ruler of Pre-Eternity and Post-Eternity. For all beings are in the grasp of His power, and the beauty and perfections to be found in all beings are but a pale shadow in relation to His beauty and perfection, and every instant, man, who is needy for Him in innumerable ways, receives countless numbers of His bounties.
Thus, Muhammed (PBUH), as a direct fruit of the Ascension, heard with utter certainty what it is that pleases the Monarch of Pre-Eternity and Post-Eternity, Who is behind seventy thousand veils, and returning, brought it as a gift to mankind.
Indeed, how curious is man to learn the conditions on the moon. If someone was to go there and return bringing news of it, both what self-sacrifice he would display, and, if he was to understand the conditions there, how he would be overcome by wonder and curiosity. But the moon is touring in the domain of a Lord of such dominion that it encircles the globe of the earth like a fly. And the globe of the earth flies round the sun like a moth. While the sun is one lamp among thousands and acts as a candle in a guest-house of that Glorious Lord of All Dominion.
Thus, Muhammed (PBUH) saw the works and wonders of art and treasuries of mercy in the everlasting realm of an All-Glorious One such as this, and returned and informed mankind. And so, if mankind does not listen to this person with utter wonder, curiosity, and love, you can understand just how contrary to reason and wisdom is their attitude.
