Allah complimented Idris for being a truthful Prophet and He mentioned that
he raised him to a high station. It has previously been mentioned that in the
Sahih it is recorded that the Messenger of Allah passed by Idris on the night of
the Isra (Night Journey) and he (Idris) was in the fourth heaven. Sufyan
reported from Mansur that Mujahid said,
[وَرَفَعْنَاهُ
مَكَاناً عَلِيّاً ]
(And We raised him to a high station.) "This means the fourth heaven.''
Al-Hasan and others said concer- ning Allah's statement,
[وَرَفَعْنَاهُ
مَكَاناً عَلِيّاً ]
(And We raised him to a high station.) "This means Paradise.''
[أُولَـئِكَ
الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ النَّبِيِّيْنَ مِن ذُرِّيَّةِ ءادَمَ
وَمِمَّنْ حَمَلْنَا مَعَ نُوحٍ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّةِ إِبْرَهِيمَ وَإِسْرَءِيلَ
وَمِمَّنْ هَدَيْنَا وَاجْتَبَيْنَآ إِذَا تُتْلَى عَلَيْهِمْ ءايَـتُ الرَّحْمَـنِ
خَرُّواْ سُجَّداً وَبُكِيّاً ]
(58. Those were they unto whom Allah bestowed His grace from among the
Prophets, of the offspring of Adam, and of those whom We carried (in the ship)
with Nuh, and of the offspring of Ibrahim and Israel, and from among those whom
We guided and chose. When the Ayat of the Most Gracious were recited unto them,
they fell down prostrate and weeping.)
