Muhammad's Night Journey

The Night Journey, or Isra and Miraj, is a significant event in Islamic tradition where Prophet Muhammad is believed to have been miraculously transported from the Kaaba in Mecca to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. From there, he ascended through the heavens, meeting prophets and receiving divine guidance, including the command for Muslims to perform prayers. This journey, experienced in a single night, underscores Muhammad’s spiritual elevation and reinforced foundational beliefs in Islam. It highlights the connection between the earthly and divine realms and emphasizes the importance of prayer and devotion.
