KUALA LUMPUR, March 11 – UMNO President Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said Isra’ Mikraj must be properly understood as it provides meaningful lessons to all Muslims.

He said, it also gives a message that the love of Allah to His beloved Prophet Muhammad is clearly reflected in every stop of the journey.

“At that time, he was tested by the loss of his beloved wife Saidatina Khadijah and his uncle Saidina Abu Talib who was the pillar of the Prophet’s spirit in fighting for the religion of Allah.

“Besides, it also shows the loyalty of the friends who are always beside him despite being pressured and oppressed by the enemy,” he said in a Facebook posting last night.

Zahid who is also Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman calls on every Muslim to deeply appreciate the wisdom of this event as it is clearly stated in the Holy Quran. –  UMNO Online
