We reached the fifth heaven where I saw a tall man, and up until now, I had not seen someone like him. He had large eyes and was very old. His nation (Ummah) was surrounding him.
I asked Jibra'il, "Who is this man?" He said: "This is Harun ‑ the son of `Imran ‑ who had gained the approval of his nation. I greeted him as well and prayed to Allah for his forgiveness. He too greeted me and prayed for my forgiveness. In this heaven as well there .were Angels who in all humility and humbleness, were busy in the praise of Allah (SWT)."
