\nNarrated Malik bin Sasaa:\n \n\nThat the Prophet (ﷺ) talked to them about the night of his Ascension to the Heavens. He said, "(Then \nGabriel took me) and ascended up till he reached the second heaven where he asked for the gate to be \nopened, but it was asked, 'Who is it?' Gabriel replied, 'I am Gabriel.' It was asked, 'Who is \naccompanying you?' He replied, 'Muhammad.' It was asked, 'Has he been called?' He said, 'Yes.' \nWhen we reached over the second heaven, I saw Yahya (i.e. John) and Jesus who were cousins. \nGabriel said, 'These are John (Yahya) and Jesus, so greet them.' I greeted them and they returned the \ngreeting saying, 'Welcome, O Pious Brother and Pious Prophet!;' "\n
