Shab-e-Meraj (27 Rajab-ul-Murajjab) tareekh-e-insaniyat ka wo be-misaal aur azeem tareen mo’jiza hai jisme Sarwar-e-Kainat Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa ﷺ ne zameen se aasmanon, Sidrat-ul-Muntaha aur La-Makaan tak ka safar jism-e-aqdas ke sath ba-bedari tay farmaya. Is muqaddas safar me Huzoor ﷺ ne tamam Anbiya ki imamat farmai, Jannat o Dozakh ka mushahada kiya aur Allah Ta’ala ka deedaar-e-elaahi apni mubarak aankhon se kiya. Is ilmi o roohani tehreer me hum Meraj-un-Nabi ﷺ ke waqiat ko Quran-e-Pak aur Sahih Ahadeeth ki roshni me pesh karenge.
1. Shab E Meraj Waqiat Quran Hadith Ka Sharai o Lughwi Mafhoom
Deen-e-Islam ek mukammal zaabta-e-hayat hai jo aqaaid, ibadaat, mamlaat aur akhlaqiyyat me poori insaniyat ki hidayat farmata hai. Jab hum shab e meraj waqiat quran hadith ki sharai hesiyat ka jaiza lete hain, to ye baat nihayat wazeh ho kar samne aati hai ke Aslaf-e-Saliheen, Aimma-e-Mujtahideen, aur Ahle Sunnat wal Jamaat ke jumhoor ulema ne hamesha is amar ko Quran-o-Sunnah ki asoolon par parkha hai.
Lughwi aitibar se is lafz ke maani paakizgi, itaat, tabedaari aur haq par qayam rehne ke aate hain. Istilah-e-shariat me iska maqsad banday ko uske Khaliq-o-Malik se jodhna aur Nabi-e-Kareem, Rahmatul-lil-Aalameen Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa ﷺ ke naqsh-e-qadam par chalana hai.
Hanafi Fiqh ke azeem ulema—jinke sarbarah Imam-e-Azam Abu Hanifa Nu’man bin Thabit (R.A.) hain—ne hamesha nusoos-e-shariah (Quran aur Sunnah) ke ma-baad usool aur qawaid ko samne rakh kar har maslay ki tahqeeq farmai hai. Ahle Sunnat wal Jamaat ka tareeqa hamesha aitedal, aman aur adab-e-risalat par mabni raha hai. Isme na to kutto-nifaq ki gunjaish hai aur na hi kisi qism ki ghulo aur bidat-e-dalalah ki.
2. Aayaat-e-Quraniyyah se Qat’i Dalaail o Barahin
Allah Tabarak wa Ta’ala ne Kalam-e-Majeed me is ahem mauzoo par wazeh hidayat ata farmai hai. Surah mubarakah me irshad-e-bari ta’ala hota hai:
سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَسْرَىٰ بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلًا مِّنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى الَّذِي بَارَكْنَا حَوْلَهُ لِنُرِيَهُ مِنْ آيَاتِنَا
Subhaanal lazee asraa bi’abdihee laylam minal masjidil haraami ilal masjidil aqsal lazee baaraknaa hawlahoo linuriyahoo min aayaatinaa
“Paak hai wo Zaat jo apne banday ko raaton raat le gayi Masjid-e-Haram se Masjid-e-Aqsa tak jiske gird humne barkat rakhi taake hum unhe apni azeem nishaniyan dikhayein. (Surah Al-Isra: 1)”
Lafz ‘Bi-Abdihi’ me ‘Abd’ rooh aur jism ke majmooay ko kehte hain. Agar ye sirf khwab hota to kuffar-e-Makkah ispar shor o ghul na machate kyunke khwab me aisi cheezein dekhna aam baat hai. Kuffar ka inkar aur Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq ka ‘Siddiq’ laqab pana is baat ka suboot hai ke ye jism-e-mubarak ke sath waqia hua.
Tafseer-e-Kabeer me Imam Fakhruddin Razi aur Tafseer Kanz al-Iman me Aala Hazrat Imam Ahmed Raza Khan Barelvi is aayat-e-mubaraka ke taht farmate hain ke Allah Ta’ala ke har hukum me hikmaton ke khazane poshida hain. Momin ka kirdar ye hona chahiye ke wo kalam-e-ilahi ke aage sar-e-tasleem kham kare aur uski hidayat ko apni amali zindagi me dhal le.
3. Ahadith-e-Nabawiyyah aur Asaar-e-Sahaba
Huzoor Sarwar-e-Kawnain, Janab-e-Ahmad-e-Mujtaba ﷺ ke aqwal aur af’aal deen ka doosra bunyadi sarchashma hain. Hadeeth-e-Mubaraka me aata hai:
أُتِيتُ بِالْبُرَاقِ وَهُوَ دَابَّةٌ أَبْيَضُ طَوِيلٌ فَوْقَ الْحِمَارِ وَدُونَ الْبَغْلِ يَضَعُ حَافِرَهُ عِنْدَ مُنْتَهَى طَرْفِهِ
Tarjuma: “Mere paas Buraq laya gaya jo safed rang ka janwar tha, gadhay se bada aur khacchar se chhota, uska qadam uski nigah ke aakhiri sire par padta tha.”
— Sahih Muslim, Hadith 162 (Kitab-ul-Iman); Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 3207
Buraq ki raftaar noor ki raftaar se bhi tez thi. Huzoor ﷺ ne Masjid-e-Aqsa me tamam Anbiya-e-Kiram ki imamat farmai jisse saabit hua ke aap Imam-ul-Anbiya aur Sayyid-ul-Mursaleen hain. Aasmanon par Hazrat Adam, Hazrat Isa, Hazrat Yahya, Hazrat Yusuf, Hazrat Idrees, Hazrat Haroon, Hazrat Musa aur Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S.) se mulaqat farmai.
Sahaba-e-Kiram Ridwanullahi Ta’ala Alaihim Ajmaeen ne is farman-e-nabawi par jis tarah amali pehra diya, wo tareekh ka sunehri baab hai. Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq, Hazrat Umar Farooq, Hazrat Usman Ghani aur Hazrat Ali Al-Murtaza (R.A.) ne hamesha is baare me aitedal aur sunnat ka daman thama rakha.
4. Aimma-e-Kiram aur Maslak-e-Aala Hazrat ki Roshni me Fiqhi Tehqeeq
Allama Qadi Iyad Shifa Shareef me aur Imam Qastallani Mawahib-ul-Ladunniyyah me farmate hain ke Deedar-e-Ilahi ke maslay par Hazrat Abdullah bin Abbas (R.A.) ka qaul marfoo aur mustanad hai ke Huzoor ﷺ ne apne Parwardigar ko apni zaahiri aankhon se dekha. Aala Hazrat ne ‘Munabbah-ul-Munya’ me saabit farmaya ke Huzoor ﷺ ko shab-e-meraj deedar-e-haq ata hua.
Mujaddid-e-Deen-o-Millat, Imam-e-Ahle-Sunnat Aala Hazrat Imam Ahmed Raza Khan Barelvi (Rahmatullahi Alayh) ne apni azeem-ush-shan tasneef Fatawa Razawiyyah me is maslay par be-misaal tehqeeq farmai hai. Aap farmate hain ke Ahle Sunnat wal Jamaat ka rasta wahi hai jispar Sahaba-e-Kiram, Tabi’een, Taba Tabi’een aur Aimma-e-Arba’a (Imam Abu Hanifa, Imam Malik, Imam Shafi’i, Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal) gamzan rahay. Deen me kisi bhi naye aqeeday ya man-marzi ki taweel ki koi gunjaish nahi hai. Har amal aur aqeeday ko nusoos-e-qat’iyyah ki roshni me samjhna zaroori hai.
Sadrush Shariah Allama Hakeem Muhammad Amjad Ali Azmi (R.A.) apni shohra-e-aafaq kitab Bahar-e-Shariat me farmate hain ke shariat-e-mutahharah ke ahkam do qism ke hain: Aqaid aur Mamlaat/Ibadaat. Aqaid me shak o shubhat se imaan me khalal waqe hota hai, jabki fiqh me Aslaf ki taqleed insan ko bhatakne se mehfooz rakhti hai. Ahle Sunnat ka sarmaya-e-iftikhar yahi hai ke unka silsila-e-ilm bila-fasl Sarwar-e-Kainat ﷺ tak pohanchta hai.
5. Shab-e-Meraj ke Ahem Marahil aur Tohfe
1. Shaqq-e-Sadr: Buraq par sawaar hone se qabl Jibreel-e-Ameen ne Huzoor ﷺ ka seena-e-aqdas chaak kiya aur aab-e-zamzam se dho kar hikmat aur imaan se bhar diya.
2. Bait-ul-Muqaddas me Imamat: Tamam Anbiya-e-Kiram ne saf-basta ho kar Huzoor ﷺ ke peeche namaz ada ki.
3. Sidrat-ul-Muntaha: Aasmanon ki bulandi par Jibreel-e-Ameen ruk gaye aur arz ki: ‘Agar mai ek baal barabar bhi aage badha to anwar-e-ilahi mere paron ko jala dein ge.’ Huzoor ﷺ akele aage tashreef le gaye.
4. Qaba Qawsayn: Huzoor ﷺ maqaam-e-qurb me pohonche jahan zikr Quran me ‘Fa-kaana qaaba qawsayni aw adna’ aaya hai.
5. 5 Waqt ki Namaz ka Tohfa: Asal me 50 namazein farz hui theen, Hazrat Musa (A.S.) ke mashware par Huzoor ﷺ ne baar baar ruju farmaya yahan tak ke 5 namazein baqi rahein magar sawab 50 hi ka rakha gaya.
6. Aasmano par Anbiya-e-Kiram se Mulaqat
| Aasman | Paighambar (Alaihissalam) | Hikmat o Pegham |
|---|---|---|
| Pehla Aasman | Hazrat Adam (A.S.) | Insaniyat ke baap ki taraf se salam o istiqbal |
| Doosra Aasman | Hazrat Isa o Hazrat Yahya (A.S.) | Zuhd o shafqat ka pegham |
| Teesra Aasman | Hazrat Yusuf (A.S.) | Husn-e-surat aur sabr ka dars |
| Chautha Aasman | Hazrat Idrees (A.S.) | ‘Wa rafa’naahu makaanan aliyya’ |
| Panchwan Aasman | Hazrat Haroon (A.S.) | Qawm ki khidmat aur fasaahat |
| Chhata Aasman | Hazrat Musa (A.S.) | Ummat ke liye namazon ki takhfeef |
| Satwan Aasman | Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S.) | Bait-ul-Ma’moor se pusht lagaye baithe thay |
7. Ahem Masail aur Ghalat-Fehmiyon ka Azala
Muashray me shab e meraj waqiat quran hadith ke hawale se jo ghalat-fehmiyan aur ifrat-o-tafreet paayi jaati hai, uska mustanad ilmi jawab darj zail hai:
- Meraj sirf roohani thi jism ke sath nahi: Ahle Sunnat ka aqeedah hai ke Meraj ba-jism-e-aqdas hui; roohani kehna kuffar ke aitrazat ko na samajhna hai.
- Deedar-e-Ilahi namumkin hai: Dunya me aam insano ke liye namumkin hai magar Mehboob-e-Khuda ﷺ ke liye shab-e-meraj khusoosi tajalli farmai gayi.
- Meraj ka jashn biddat hai: Is azeem nemath aur mo’jize ka zikr karna aur shukr bajana baais-e-barkat hai.
8. Amali Zindagi me Nafaz (Practical Guidelines)
Har musalman ko chahiye ke wo darj zail amoor par pabandi ke sath amal kare taake uski amali zindagi me sunnat ka noor shamil ho sake:
- 5 Waqt Namaz ki Pabandi: Namaz momin ki meraj hai; iska tohfa shab-e-meraj mila isliye isay hargiz qaza na karein.
- Durood Shareef ki Kasrat: Huzoor ﷺ ki bargah me shab-e-meraj kasrat se durood o salam bhejein.
- 27 Rajab ka Roza: Is din ka roza rakhna salaf-e-saliheen se manqool aur mustahab hai.
- Mo’jizat-e-Mustafa ka Bayan: Ghar me bachon ko Meraj ki tareekh sunayein taake Hubb-e-Rasool pukhta ho.
- Ghareebon ki Imdad: Bait-ul-Muqaddas ki azaadi aur mazloomeen ke liye dua karein.
9. Roohani Fawaid aur Tazkiyah-e-Nafs
Iman ki tazgi, Hubb-e-Rasool me be-panah izafa, aur namaz me dilchaspi o khushoo ka husool.
Sultan-ul-Awliya, Huzoor Ghaus-e-Azam Sayyiduna Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani (R.A.) apni shandar tasneef Al-Fath ar-Rabbani aur Ghunyat-ut-Talibeen me irshad farmate hain ke jab tak banda apne zahir ko shariat ke taabay aur batin ko ikhlas o hubb-e-ilahi se aaraasta na kare, tab tak haqeeqat-e-roohaniyat haasil nahi ho sakti. Shariat zahir ka husn hai aur Tareeqat batin ki taharat hai. Dono ek doosre ke laazoom hain.
Hujjat-ul-Islam Imam Muhammad Ghazali (R.A.) Ihya Ulum al-Din me irshad farmate hain ke momin ka har fail (chahe wo ibadat ho, zikr ho, ya dunya-wi kashmakash) agar niyat-e-saliha ke sath kiya jaye to wo ibadat ban jata hai. Dil ki paakizgi, bughz o keena se nijaat aur khuloos-e-niyat hi roohani kamyabi ki azeem kunji hai.
