They told us that the sacred rock from which the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) started his ascent into heaven on
thenight of the Mi'raaj is suspended in the air by the power of
Allaah. Please tell us if this is correct, may Allaah reward you.
Praise be to Allaah.
Everything is standing in its position by the permission of Allaah,
whether it be the heavensand all that is in them or the earth and all
that is on it – even the rock which you asked about. Allaah says
(interpretationof the meanings):
"Verily, Allaah grasps the heavens and the earth lest they move away
fromtheir places, and if they were to move away from their places,
there is not one that could grasp them after Him…" [Faatir 35:41]
"And among His Signs is that the heaven and the earth stand by His
Command…" [al-Room 30:25]
The Rock in Bayt al-Maqdis is not suspended in space with air around
it on all sides; it is attached to the side of the mountain of which
it is a part and by which itis supported; both it and the mountain
stand in their positions because of the well-known physical laws
governing the universe; in this regard it is like everything else
thatexists. We do not deny that Allaah is Able to hold part of His
creation in space; all of creation is standing in space by the power
of Allaah, as stated above. Allaah raised the mountain above the
people of Moosa when they refused to follow thelaws that Moosa brought
them. It was held up by the power of Allaah. Allaah says
(interpretationof the meaning):
"And (remember) when We took your Covenant and We raised above you the
Mount (saying): 'Hold fast to that which We have given you, and
remember that which is therein so that you may become al-muttaqoon
(the pious)." [al-Baqarah 2:63]
"And (remember) when We raised the mountain over them as if it had
been a canopy, and they thought that it was going to fall on them. (We
said): 'Hold firmly to what We have given you, and remember that which
is therein, so that you may fear Allaah and obey Him." [al-A'raaf
7:171]
But our point here is to explain what is in fact the case: the rock in
Jerusalem is not suspended in space, completely separate from the
mountain; it is attached to it and is supported by it. And Allaah
knows best.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
