<P> 10 So did Allah convey the inspiration to His Servant what He (meant) to convey . 11 The heart in no way falsified that which he saw . 12 Will ye then dispute with him concerning what he saw? 13 For indeed he saw him at a second descent, 14 Near the Lote - tree beyond which none may pass: 15 Near it is the Garden of Abode . 16 Behold, the Lote - tree was shrouded (in mystery unspeakable!) 17 (His) sight never swerved, nor did it go wrong! 18 For truly did he see, of the Signs of his Lord, the Greatest! </P> <P> The Lote Tree is also referred to in Sura 34, verse 16 and Sura 56, verse 28.It is also in Junnah . </P> <P> A modern Qur'an Commentary entitled Taisīr al - karīm al - raḥman fī tafsīr kalām al - manān by Abd ar - Rahman ibn Nasir as - Sa'di, while commenting on Quran 53: 14, the Sidrat al - Muntahā, (Lote - Tree of the Extremity) explained: </P> <P> It (the Sidrat al - Muntahā) is a very large Tree (shajarat: شجرة) beyond the seventh heaven . It is named the Sidrat al - Muntahā because there terminates at it whatever ascends from the earth and whatever descends (from heaven) including what comes down from God, including waḥy (divine inspiration) and other things besides . Alternatively, (it might be said that this name is because) it is the Uttermost Extremity or the very end of something (or Boundary) (intihā' which is one of the many Arabic words for the word end) for the knowledge of the creatures approaching it, relative, that is, to its Existent Being (as located) above the heavens and the earth . So it is al - Muntahā (the Extremity, Boundary) with respect to (all human) modes of knowledge (` ulūm) or other things besides . And God is best informed (of this matter). Thus (it was that) Muhammad saw Gabriel in that location (al - makān) which is the domain of the pure and beautiful, elevated (celestial) Souls (maḥall al - arwāḥ al - ` uluwiyya al - zakiyya al - jamīliyya)... </P>
