The Sunnah collections do not contain anything that proves the story that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, wanted to take off his sandals at the Throne on the Night of Mi'raj, and was called upon not to take them off. Al-Lacknawi Abd al-Hayy mentioned in "Al-Athar al-Marfu'ah fi al-Akhbar al-Mawdu'ah" that it is a fabricated story. Ahmad al-Maqqari al-Maliki in "Fath al-Muta'al fi Madh Khair al-Ni'al", Radi al-Din al-Qazwini, and Muhammad ibn Abd al-Baqi al-Zurqani in his commentary on "Al-Mawahib al-Laduniyah" have all explicitly stated its fabrication.
