Abstract
The Mairaj is a unique and awe-inspiring incident in human history. The heavenly journey of the Prophet (PBUH) is not only an expression of his personal glory but also a sign of human greatness. There is a mention of it in two chapters of Quran also references of it in Hadith. Muslims believe that it was a physical journey but difference of opinion does exist between Sahaba and scholars pertaining to this event. Some are of the opinion that it was a dream experience other describe it as a flight of imagination but Quran is the authentic source of its facticity. Arabic poets have made it a topic of their Na'at poetry and a new genre of Mairaj Naama came to existence. The tradition of this genre also exists in Urdu. Nazr Sabri was a great Na’at poet of recent past. He has narrated it passionately in his Na’at poetry. He also composed a Mairaj Naama in his student days which is an addition to this genre with respect to its form and style. In this article, an analysis of the Mairaj Naama with a special emphasis on poet's emotional association is presented.
