The ascension of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) is the material and spiritual journey from the earth to the the beyond of seven heavens, which means the position of nearness "or even closer". And its main purpose is to look at a selection of great divine verses based on the first verse of Surah al-ʾIsrá and the eighteenth verse of Surah al-Najm. In this journey, the Holy Prophet (pbuh) encountered a large and diverse set of topics and observations, including meetings with prophets and angels, Ṭūbá and Sidratul Muntahá, Heaven and Hell, etc. In the meantime, since a huge part of the capacity of the prophetic ascension has been spent on showing and expressing ʿAlawī virtues; the research, while extracting these virtues from the narratives related to the ascension in the qualitative research method and examining the information collected by the descriptive and analytical method, divided them into three parts in terms of the quality of expression: Statements, letters and manifestations;and because of the priority of their type of communication, it has been divided into three parts: Communication with Allah the Almighty, communication with the Prophet (pbuh), and communication with people. In this way, despite the great importance as well as the extraordinary quantity and quality of these virtues, the obtained result showed that one of the most important purposes of the ascension of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) is to explain and propagate these virtues and authorities, and in general, the delivery of this message is considered one of the main pillars of the ascension. At the end, this research explained one of those virtues, namely, the title of Amīr al-Mu'minīn for Imām Ali (as). The title of Amīr al-Mu'minīn is unique and relatively comprehensive compared to other titles of the Imām (as), it can also be an indication of ʿAlawī's authority and their immediate caliphate.
