Prophet Mohammed SAW knowledge of unseen

Question:

Assalamualikum… I want to ask something from you about Islam.. as you know we ahl e sunnat wa jamat believe that the Prophet SAW has the knowledge of “unseen” right? But the hadith of Aayisha RA says in Bukhari Shareef that if someone say Prophet has the knowledge of unseen then he is liar. Please say what is truth… and also we believe that Prophet SAW has seen Allah, right? At isra wal miraj?? But in the same hadith Aisha RA says the same if some one say that the Prophet has seen his lord then he is liar .. Please say what is the ultimate truth please… zajakallah khair...

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,
What our Mother Aisha (r) meant was “Whoever claims that the Prophet has such knowledge independently of Allah.” As for the second issue, the majority of the Sahaba followed the position of Ibn `Abbas that the Prophet (s) did see his Lord. And Allah knows best.
