53:15
Sidrah (The lote-tree, the Universal Soul)
It is said in verses (53:15-16): "Close to which is the paradise of abode, while the lote-tree was hiding (a precious thing) and showing." The sacred Sanctuary is the treasure of the secrets of both the worlds, where there is everything and no real bounty is outside of it.
Sidrah (The lote-tree, the Universal Soul)
In connection with micraj, it is mentioned in this way: "And he saw that manifestation twice at the lote-tree of the utmost boundary, near which is the garden of abode, when the lote-tree was concealing what it was concealing." (53:13-16)
The great scholars of the people of zahir (exotericists/literalists) have confessed that they do not know the reality of the lote-tree of the utmost boundary, because to discover such secrets is extremely difficult. However, such secrets of the Qur'an are certainly in the treasure of the Imam of the time.
