رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا 3888. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās: Regarding the Statement of Allāh تعالى: "...And We made not the vision which We showed you (O Muhammad ﷺ as an actual eye-witness and not as a dream on the night of Al-Isra') but a trial for the mankind..." (V.17:60) Ibn Abbās added: The sights which Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was shown on Al-Isra' (Night Journey) when he was taken to Bait-ul-Maqdis (Jerusalem) were actual eye-witnesses (not dreams). And the accursed tree (mentioned) in the Qur'an is the tree of Az-Zaqqūm (itself).
