Evening Journey
Incident of Evening Journey Of (PBUH)
As soon as you set foot on the rock, clear and excellent water Raised out from under it, they had never drank such water before. They drank to their heart's content. Then he asked:
"Nephew! Are you full?"
The Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Yes !"
You hit your heel again in the same place and the place became as dry as before.
The Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) also lived with his other uncle Hazrat Zubair bin Abdul Muttalib (R.A) for a few years. Once during this time, the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) traveled to Yemen in a caravan with his uncle. On the way, he passed through a valley. A rebellious camel used to live. It used to block the way of passers-by, but as soon as it saw the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH), it immediately sat down and started rubbing its breast from the ground. You got down from your camel and mounted on it. He took it and crossed the valley. After that he left the camel.
When the caravan returned from its journey, it passed through a valley which was full of storm water, the water was making waves. Seeing this, he said to the caravan:
"Follow me."
Then he entered the valley with satisfaction, the rest of the people were also behind him. Allah Almighty dried up the water by His power and he crossed for the whole caravan. When the caravan reached Makkah, the people narrated these amazing events. Speaking of:
"This boy has some dignity."
Hazrat Ibn Hisham (R.A) writes: A man from Banu Lahab was a great physicist, that is, he used to estimate the condition and future of the people by looking at their appearance. When he came to Makkah, people would bring their children to him and see him. He used to tell about them. Once he came, Hazrat Abu Talib (R.A) took you to him and at that time you were still a young boy. The morphologist looked at you, then at the other children. After graduation he said:
"Bring this boy to me."
Hazrat Abu Talib (R.A) had noticed that the physiologist had seen his nephew with strange eyes, so he took you out of there. When the physiologist found out that you were not there, he started screaming.
"Woe to you, bring me the boy I just saw, by God! He's great."
Hazrat Abu Talib (R.A) had heard these words from him while leaving.

Hazrat Abu Talib (R.A) intended to go to Syria for business. The Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhaamad (PBUH) also expressed his desire to go with him. It is narrated in some traditions that he specifically ordered him to go.Hazrat Abu Talib (R.A), seeing his interest, said: :
"By God! I will take it with me. It can never be separated from me, nor can I ever be separated from it."
According to a narration, he grabbed the reins of Hazrat Abu Talib's (R.A) camel and said:
"Dear Uncle ! To whom are you leaving me? I have neither mother nor father."
At that time Mubarak was nine years old. Finally Hazrat Abu Talib (R.A) left with him. He sat him on his camel. On the way he stopped at a Christian place of worship. The monk of the monastery was shocked to see the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad(PBUH). He got up. He asked Abu Talib:
"Who is this boy of yours?"
He replied:
"This is my son."
On hearing this, the monk said:
"It can't be your son."
Hazrat Abu Talib(R.A) was astonished to hear this and said:
"What do you mean ... why can't this be my son?"
he said:
"It is not possible for the boy's father to be alive. He is a prophet."
This means that the signs in them belong to the last prophet of the world and one of their signs is that they will be orphans. Their father will die at the time when they are just born. This boy has all the signs of a coming prophet. One of his signs is that his mother will also die in his childhood.
Now Hazrat Abu Talib(R.A) asked this monk:
"What is a prophet?"
The monk said:
"A prophet is one to whom news comes from heaven and then he informs the people of the earth ... You must protect this boy from the Jews."
Hazrat Abu Talib(R.A) then proceeded from there. On the way, he stopped by another monk. He was also a devotee of a monastery. When he saw the Holy Prophet, he asked:
"What do you think of this boy?"
Hazrat Abu Talib(R.A) said the same thing to Hazrat Abu Talib(R.A) said the same thing to him:
"This is my son."
The monk heard this and said:
"He can't be your son, his father can't be alive."
Hazrat Abu Talib(R.A) asked:
"why ...?"
The monk replied:
"Because his face is the face of a Prophet. His eyes are the eyes of a Prophet, that is, like the Prophet who is to be sent to the last ummah, his signs are present in the old heavenly books."
After that the caravan left and reached Basra. Here a monk named Bahira lived in his monastery. His real name was Georges, Bahira was his title. He was a great scholar.
From the time of Jesus the monk of this monastery, from generation to generation, this world was run by a noble family. Thus, their greatest scholar at that time was Bahira.
The people of Quraysh used to pass by Bahira but he never spoke to them, but this time when he saw you in the caravan he prepared food for the whole caravan.
Bahira also saw the scene that the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had a change of shade. When the caravan came to a halt under a tree, he looked at the change. She was now casting a shadow on the tree and the branches of the tree. They leaned towards the place where the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH)was present. He saw that many branches had sprung up on him. In fact, when the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) reached this tree, the people of the caravan had already occupied the shady place. There was no shade left, so when you sat in the sun, the branches changed their direction and gathered over you. Thus you were completely in the shade. Bahira had clearly seen this scene. See this sign of yours. He sent a message to the caravan.
"O Quraysh! I have prepared food for you. I wish that all of you would come to eat, that is, children, old people and slaves."
Hearing this message from Bahira, one of the caravan said:
"Oh Bahira ... today you are doing a new job, we often go through this path, you never arranged an invitation, then what is the matter today."
Bahira simply replied:
"You're right, but you're just a guest, and it's nice to have a guest."
Thus all the people reached Bahira ... but the Messenger of Allah was not with them. They were left in the camp.
