Allah (God) has sent messengers at every time of history to make the belief in monotheism dominate. He has sent leaf to some of these messengers and books to some other, as well as giving responsibility to some of them to continue the previous sharia (religious law). The miracle and qualification he gave to each prophet was different. He mentioned some prophets more and some of them were more concise in the Qur'an. One of the prophets mentioned a little is prophet Idris. The Quran mentioned prophet Idris in two places. It describes him as faithful and patient. It has been a matter of curiosity for commentators to inform that Idris has been ascended to an honourable position (holy place) in the Quran. The commentators have made different views throughout the history to understand the issue, but could not agree on the common opinion. However, many narrations about the subject have made the issue an impenetrable. The question that scholars are trying to find answers is what was the honourable position Allah gives to prophet Idris, or how it happened. Although most of the commentators in the first term of the period claim the honourable position given to prophet Idris is spiritually and physically ascended to the sky, but they do not have a common opinion on how many floors in the sky he was ascended. There are those who say that the place where he was ascended is ascending to heaven as well as those who claim that it was the fourth or sixth floor of the sky. Very few of them suggested that Allah ascended him to protect him from the evil of his people. Most of the early commentators, except for a few commentators such as Maturidi, likens his ascending to the incident of prophet Isaac being raised. Some of the commentators bases the incident of ascending prophet Idris to the sky, to the meeting with the prophet Muhammad during his ascension. Some of the commentators who do not accept the idea that Idris was ascended spiritually and physically to the sky, evaluated his spiritual authority as given him lofty and spiritual authority. However, some of them considered that given thirty leaf (page) and prophecy to the Idris and having knowledge in different subjects are some of the superior authority that given to him. As far as we can understand, one of the most complex topics in the history of Islamic thought is the state of being ascended. It is not possible to claim that we will reach a final conclusion in this matter. The question of what it means to be given superior authority to prophet Idris, and the opinions of the commentators on this matter have aroused curiosity and this curiosity has prompted us to do a work in this manner. Our main aim in this study is to try to understand what is meaning of the following verse "We ascended him to a holy place."
