After hearing the Friday sermons (the preachers: Ust. Umar Shahab) yesterday so want to write about the events of the Ascension.

For a Muslim, Ascension is an important event which is owned by the miracle of Prophet Muhammad SAW. In about 14 centuries ago, the SAW Rasululloh get the task to perform pilgrimage. He diperjalankan by God from the Grand Mosque in Mecca to the Aqsa Mosque in Al-Quds, followed by a layer of the highest heaven (Sidratul Muntaha) to the extent that science can not be reached by all creatures, angels, humans and jinn. Of these events began to pray five times required.

Imagine traveling very, very far it is only taken in one night. Subhanalloh.

Then what is the secret behind it all?

Ascension of the Prophet meant a trip to the Masjid al-Aqsa Mosque. Traveling from one shrine to another shrine (mosque to mosque).

Ascension of the Prophet Muhammad means journey of Aqsa Mosque, the first to the seventh through the sky continues to Sidratul Muntaha. Sidratul Muntaha a terminal / final maqom there is no creature can ever penetrate. Even the angel Gabriel who accompanied the Prophet did not ask permission to leave when they have reached the seventh heaven, because it will burn if you enter it. Only Allah, the most perfect human being, a creature with the highest levels of obedience can enter to meet the Creator, Allah.

So what we do with the Muslims now?

As has been explained that the Ascension of the initial orders required the obligatory prayer, worship Allah SWT.

While the history of hadith Bukhari said that "Prayer is Mi'rajnya who believe." In prayer we are also facing / dialogue with Allah analogy with the Mi'raj by Rosululloh SAW.

Now the question is whether our prayers reflect on the meaning it has the Ascension, with solemn hearts present.

Or do we just pray a speech lip movements, when we say prayers lafadz-lafadz words, without knowing, understanding and experience it, but all it is a dialogue lafadz us to God, so maybe it will be created when a sense of the sacred dialogue, understanding and no appreciation of ourselves.

Prophet once said, "Verily it is thought that the perpetrator has been enforcing worship praying (completely). Though not noted for her by the angel Raqib (the good deed recording) except half a prayer, one-third, one fourth, or fifth, until the tenth. "(Reported by Ahmad and Abu Daud).
