@SuperMaryam16: And this hadith in Bukhari PROVES that the Prophet s.a. travelled in a DREAM, not physically. The story of his spiritual voyage is told in Bukhari, Vol. 9, Book 93, No. 608 : The journey starts“...while he was sleeping in the Sacred Mosque...” and at the end of his spiritual voyage, it is related “...The Prophet then woke while he was in the Sacred Mosque (at Mecca).” HE WAS ASLEEP ALL ALONG. Whoever believes that the heaven containing the dead is physical, is in grave error.

[Peace4everynation]

@SuperMaryam16: Where was the Prophet s.a. asked this? Give the reference please. The Prophet s.a. NEVER went physically to the heavens. It was all a dream. He never saw Allah with his physical eyes: Bukhari, Vol. 9, Bk 93, No. 477 : 'Aisha said, "If anyone tells you that Muhammad saw his Lord, he is a liar, for Allah says: 'No vision can grasp Him.' (6.103) And if anyone tells you that Muhammad saw the Unseen, he is a liar, for Allah says: "None has the knowledge of the Unseen but Allah."

[SuperMaryam16]

@Peace4everynation "Wherever you are, He is with you" 57:4; "Wherever you turn, you will find the countenance of Allah" 2:115 There is no contradiction with that. When the Prophet was asked what that meant, he said Allah is with us by His wisdom. That is what it means. Allah is not part of this universe. And nowhere did the Prophet say a man cannot go to the heaves. Even the Prophet Himself went to the Heavens to recieve the daily Prayers where he met many of the Prophets. Full Stop-Period..

[Peace4everynation]

@SuperMaryam16: I think you missed the point. The Holy Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) stated that A MAN AND MESSENGER CANNOT GO UP TO THE SKY PHYSICALLY. So if you say that Jesus CAN, then you are contradicting the HOLY MESSENGER OF ALLAH - Na'oodhu billah. Also, Allah SWT IS OMNIPRESENT according to the Noble Qur'an: "Wherever you are, He is with you" 57:4; "Wherever you turn, you will find the countenance of Allah" 2:115. Will you contradict Allah too?

[SuperMaryam16]

@Peace4everynation 1.well, he did went to the heavens. When he had to recieve the five daily prayers. And Elijah according tothe bible was also risen to the heavens. So that doesnot make Jesus more than a messenger...

2. You said "Moreover, where is Allah??? Is He in a place to which Jesus a.s. had to travel bodily? ALLAH IS EVERYWHERE. " We muslims donot believe that Allah is omnipresent. God is not everywhere. Only His wisdom is with us. God created the earth. He is not part of this universe.
