I was raised to the Lote Tree and saw four rivers, two of which were coming out and two going in. Those which were coming out were the Nile and the Euphrates, and those which were going in were two rivers in paradise. Then I was given three bowls, one containing milk, and another containing honey, and a third containing wine. I took the bowl containing milk and drank it. It was said to me, "You and your followers will be on the right path (of Islam)."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رُفِعْتُ إِلَى السِّدْرَةِ فَإِذَا أَرْبَعَةُ أَنْهَارٍ نَهَرَانِ ظَاهِرَانِ وَنَهَرَانِ بَاطِنَانِ فَأَمَّا الظَّاهِرَانِ النِّيلُ وَالْفُرَاتُ وَأَمَّا الْبَاطِنَانِ فَنَهَرَانِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَأُتِيتُ بِثَلاَثَةِ أَقْدَاحٍ قَدَحٌ فِيهِ لَبَنٌ وَقَدَحٌ فِيهِ عَسَلٌ وَقَدَحٌ فِيهِ خَمْرٌ فَأَخَذْتُ الَّذِي فِيهِ اللَّبَنُ فَشَرِبْتُ فَقِيلَ لِي أَصَبْتَ الْفِطْرَةَ أَنْتَ وَأُمَّتُكَ قَالَ هِشَامٌ وَسَعِيدٌ وَهَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ صَعْصَعَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الأَنْهَارِ نَحْوَهُ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرُوا ثَلاَثَةَ أَقْدَاحٍ  

[Machine] He said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I was lifted to the Sidrah (lote tree) when there were four rivers, two visible and two hidden. As for the visible ones, they are the Nile and the Euphrates, and as for the hidden ones, they are two rivers in Paradise. I was brought three cups, one filled with milk, one filled with honey, and one filled with wine. So I took the one with milk and drank from it. It was said to me, 'You have chosen the Fitrah (natural disposition) for yourself and your nation.'"  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رُفِعَتْ لِيَ السِّدْرَةُ فَإِذَا أَرْبَعَةُ أَنْهَارٍ نَهْرَانِ ظَاهِرَانِ وَنَهْرَانِ بَاطِنَانِ فَأَمَّا الظَّاهِرَانِ فَالنِّيلُ وَالْفُرَاتُ وَأَمَّا الْبَاطِنَانِ فَنَهَرَانِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَأُتِيتُ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَقْدَاحٍ قَدَحٍ فِيهِ لَبَنٌ وَقَدَحٍ فِيهِ عَسَلٌ وَقَدَحٍ فِيهِ خَمْرٌ فَأَخَذْتُ الَّذِي فِيهِ اللَّبَنُ فَشَرِبْتُ فَقِيلَ لِي أَصَبْتَ الْفِطْرَةَ أَنْتَ وَأُمَّتُكَ  

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ «رُفِعَتْ لِي سِدْرَةُ الْمُنْتَهَى فَإِذَا نَبْقُهَا مِثْلُ قِلَالِ هَجَرَ وَإِذَا وَرَقُهَا مِثْلُ آذَانِ الْفِيَلَةِ وَإِذَا أَرْبَعَةُ أَنْهَارٍ نَهْرَانِ بَاطِنَانِ وَنَهْرَانِ ظَاهِرَانِ فَقُلْتُ مَا هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ؟ قَالَ أَمَّا الْبَاطِنَانِ فَنَهْرَانِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَأَمَّا الظَّاهِرَانِ فَالنِّيلُ وَالْفُرَاتُ»
