Chapter: About (The Lote-Tree of the Utmost Boundary)

It is narrated on the authority of Abdullah (b. Umar) that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was taken for the Night journey, he was taken to Sidrat-ul-Muntaha, which is situated on the sixth heaven, where terminates everything that ascends from the earth and is held there, and where terminates every- thing that descends from above it and is held there. (It is with reference to this that) Allah said:
" When that which covers covered the lote-tree" (al-Qur'an, Iiii. 16). He (the narrator) said: (It was) gold moths. He (the narrator further) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was given three (things): he was given five prayers, be was given the concluding verses of Sura al-Baqara, and remission of serious Sins for those among his Ummah who associate not anything with Allah

Explanation
-The Ahadith in his chapter prove that the Muwahidoon from this Ummah will be forgiven.
-This is a right specific for this Ummah that those with major sins may be forgiven, not given to those before us.

Usoolee Benefit
-Some said Aaam (general) is never the same as Mutlaq (unrestricted).
Others said Mutlaq and Aaam are the same for Amr/Nahee only and not in Akhbaar.
However, Nawawi said this view is wrong, rather Aaam can be Mutlaq in Khabr, Amr and Nahee but it's Taqyeed will come with other narrations or Ijmaa. 

Sharh Sahih Muslim an-Nawawi, 3/5-6
