The Israʾ and Miʿraj (Arabic: الإسراء والمعراج, al-’Isrā’ wal-Miʿrāj) are the two parts of a Night Journey that, according to Islam, the Islamic prophet Muhammad took during a single night around the year 621. Within Islam it signifies both a physical and spiritual journey.[1] The Quran surah al-Isra contains an outline account,[2] while greater detail is found in the hadith collections of the reports, teachings, deeds and sayings of Muhammad. In the accounts of the Israʾ, Muhammad is said to have traveled on the back of a winged mule-like white beast, called Buraq, to "the farthest mosque". By tradition this mosque, which came to represent the physical world, was identified as the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. At the mosque, Muhammad is said to have led the other prophets in prayer. His subsequent ascent into the heavens came to be known as the Miʿraj. Muhammad's journey and ascent is marked as one of the most celebrated dates in the Islamic calendar.[3]

Ancient Islam Presentation
Islam originated in Mecca with the prophet Muhammad, who Muslims believe received revelations from the angel Gabriel. The Quran is the Muslim holy book, which teaches that there is only one God and Muhammad is his final prophet. Islam spread rapidly across the Middle East after Muhammad's death and influenced the region greatly, though it also faced opposition through conflicts like the Crusades. Today, Islam remains one of the largest religions worldwide and continues to impact the Middle East.
Life of the prophet muhammad
Muhammad is considered the final prophet in Islam. He received revelations from God through the Angel Jibril that were compiled into the Qur'an. Muhammad was born in Mecca in the 6th century AD among the Quraysh tribe who worshipped many gods. After marrying Khadijah and receiving revelations on the Night of Power, Muhammad began preaching monotheism, angering Meccan leaders. He later migrated to Medina to escape persecution and eventually defeated the Quraysh in battle, establishing Islam.
PhD Thesis and MLitt Dissertation Titles In Islamicjerusalem Studies
This document lists PhD theses and M.Litt dissertations from 2002-2006 related to Islamic Jerusalem studies. The theses were conducted through the Al-Maktoum Institute for Arabic and Islamic Studies in partnership with universities in Scotland. The theses covered topics like the early Islamic conquest of Jerusalem, treatment of Christians in the city under Umar Ibn Al-Khattab and Saladin, and the significance of Jerusalem in Islam. Ongoing and planned theses are also noted.
The Miracle of the Holy Quran
The Holy Quran is the central religious text of Islam which Muslims believe was revealed by God to the Prophet Muhammad. It contains the scriptures and laws that lay out how Muslims should behave and live, as well as a comprehensive philosophy. The Quran is written in Arabic and is considered linguistically and scientifically miraculous, as it contains knowledge and prophecies that were not known at the time but have been later proven true. It remains completely authentic in its original language, unlike other religious texts. Reciting and reflecting on the Quran is an important part of Muslim faith and daily life.
Islam and science
The document discusses the relationship between Islam and science. It provides examples of prominent Islamic scientists from history like Al-Khwarizmi, Omar Khayyam, Al-Razi, Ibn Sina, and Al-Biruni who made significant contributions. The document also discusses how certain scientific concepts mentioned in the Quran like the Big Bang theory of the origin of the universe, expansion of the universe, rain in measured amounts, and the moon's orbit have been proven by modern science. It argues that the presence of these scientific facts in the Quran centuries ago is not a coincidence.
Microsoft Word The Project, Islam And Science
This document discusses the relationship between Islam and science. It begins by describing how knowledge is viewed in the Quran and by the Prophet Muhammad, noting many verses that urge Muslims to actively pursue knowledge. It then contrasts the Islamic perspective, which sees religion and science as compatible, to the historical Western perspective where religion and science conflicted. The document goes on to provide examples of scientific phenomena described in the Quran. It aims to show how Islam inspired scientific pursuit and that some Quranic verses reflected scientific facts not known at the time.
History of Islam
Muhammad founded the religion of Islam in 570 CE after receiving revelations from God through the archangel Gabriel. Islam gradually spread through military conquests and trade routes, establishing a vast Muslim empire. The core beliefs of Islam are the oneness of God and that Muhammad is his prophet, as outlined in the Quran. The five pillars of Islam are the fundamental acts worship: the declaration of faith, daily prayers, alms giving, fasting during Ramadan, and the pilgrimage to Mecca.
Islam good overview
Islam originated with the revelations received by the prophet Muhammad in the 7th century. Muslims believe in one God called Allah and that Muhammad is his final prophet. The central text of Islam is the Quran, which Muslims believe contains the verbatim word of God. The five pillars of Islam are the shahada (declaration of faith), salat (prayer), zakat (charity), sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). Islam spread rapidly across the world due to its simple and portable practices, tolerance of other faiths, use of trade routes, and military campaigns. Today there are over 1 billion Muslims worldwide, with Indonesia having the largest population

Prophets
The document discusses prophets in Islam. It states that Allah appointed 124,000 prophets throughout history to different nations, with 25 mentioned by name in the Quran.

Therefore, all prophets were Muslims. While prophets are infallible and do not deliberately commit sins, they can make innocent errors of judgment as they are still human. The role of prophets is to receive revelation from Allah and convey it to people while inviting them to submit to Allah and follow His guidance. The last prophet is identified as Muhammad.

The document summarizes the early development of Islam. It describes how Islam originated in Mecca on the Arabian Peninsula under the prophet Mohammed. Mohammed began receiving revelations from God in 610 CE and started preaching the teachings of Islam. However, this threatened the local polytheistic traditions and economy in Mecca, which depended on pilgrimages to the Kaaba. Mohammed and his followers faced persecution, so they migrated to Medina in 622 CE, an event known as the Hijra. In Medina, Mohammed established the first Muslim community and the five pillars of Islam: the shahadah (faith), salat (prayer), zakat (alms), sawm (fasting during Ramad

Shobe Miraj or lailatul Miraj , Isra By Muhammad S Shaleh, Al Mamoor School New York
- 1. What is miraj ? The one-night ascent of the prophet Muhammad through the seven heavens to the presence of God, following his nocturnal transportation to Jerusalem from Mecca, to which, on the same night, he was then taken back. BY:MUHAMMAD S. SHALEH 5TH GRADE AL-MAMOOR SCHOOL, NEW YORK
- 2. What is Isra ? Israa is an Arabic word referring to Prophet Muhammad's miraculous night journey from Makka to Jerusalem
- 3. When did Miraj occur? The date was 27th of Rajab in the year 721
- 4. What is Miraj and Isra? Isra and Mi'raj, also known as Al Isra' wal Miraj, is observed on the 27th day of the month of Rajab, the seventh month in the Islamic calendar. This event marks the night that Allah took Mohammad (SA) on a journey from Mecca to Jerusalem and then to heaven
- 5. What is the scientific explanation of Miraj and Isra?

The Isra and Miraj refer to, two parts of a miraculous journey that Prophet Muhammad took in one night from Makkah to Jerusalem and then an ascension to the heavens.
- 6. How many lessons are in the story miraj and isra? There are 7 lessons in the story miraj and isra How many lessons are in the story miraj and isra?How many lessons are in the story miraj and isra?How many lessons are in the story Miraj and Isra?
- 7. Where is masjid al-aqsa located? Masjid al-aqsa is located in the Old City of Jerusalem, is the third holiest site in Islam. The mosque was built on top of the Temple Mount, known as the Al Aqsa Compound or Haram esh-Sharif in Islam. Muslims believe that Muhammad was transported from the Great Mosque of Mecca to al-Aqsa during the Night Journey.
- 8. What is the modern muslim observation of the story of MIRAJ and ISRA? The history of the tradition itself is the source of debate, as some Muslim scholars believe that originally there were two legends that gradually became one. In the first tradition, Mohammad is said to have been visited as he slept in the Ka'aba in Makkah by the angels Gabriel and MIchael, who transported him to heaven, where they made their way through the seven levels of heaven to the throne of God, meeting Adam, Joseph, Jesus and other prophets along the way. The second traditional legend involves Mohammad's night journey from Makkah to Jerusalem, an equally miraculous journey. Over time in the early years of Islam, scholars have suggested that the two traditions merged into one, in which the narrative has Mohammad first journeying to Jerusalem, then being raised up to heaven by the angel Gabriel.
- 9. The miraculous night journey of the story miraj. As the tradition has it, Muhammad and his followers perceived the Isra and Mi'raj as a miraculous journey, and it gave them strength and hope that God was with them despite recent setbacks. Soon, in fact, Mohammad would find another clan protector in Makkah—Mut'im ibn 'Adi, the chief of clan Banu Nawfal. For Muslim's today, Isra' and Mi'raj has the same symbolic meaning and lesson--salvation despite adversity through the exercise of faith.
