Isra' and Mi'raj
Videos
The Israʾ and Miʿraj are the two parts of a Night Journey that Muslims believe the Islamic prophet Muhammad took during a single night around the year AD 621. Within Islam, the majority of scholars agree that the journey was both a physical and spiritual one in spite of the physics required for such a journey making it essentially impossible. A brief mention of the story is found in the 17th surah (chapter) of the Quran, called al-Isra', while details of the story are found in the hadith.
