Muhammad also referred to as Prophet Muhammad or the last
prophet was a religious leader and founder of Islam, also to be the successors
of previous messengers Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and other prophets. It is
mentioned he was an orphan and was taken care by his paternal grandfather Abd
al-Muttalib, he usually used to isolate himself by meditating in a mountain
cave named Hira, and this was the place Gabriel revealed in front of the
Muhammad and gave him the message from god. Alongside founding Islam he also
played a vital role in uniting the whole of Arabia and beyond by his
successors.
Apart from his success in founding new religion and
establishing law and order in the whole of Arabia, there was a incident
recorded in Islamic scriptures of hadith and Sirah literature, where one night
after Muhammad offered his night prayers fell asleep, and angel Gabriel wakes
him up and tears his chest open and fills his heart with wisdom, and lead to a
creature called Buraq, a white mount that was smaller than a mule, but larger
than a donkey. And the buraq carried Muhammad from Mecca to al-Masjid al-Aqsa
in a blink of an eye and offered prayers alongside other angels.

After their prayers in masjid al-Aqsa, Muhammad was taken on
a journey to the seven heavens, where the lowest being the earth, and each
heaven is larger than the previous one. Prophet Muhammad described the size of
the heavens; the first heaven, as compared to the second, is similar to a small
ring in the desert, and he continued this narrative until he described the
sixth heaven as being the size of a ring in the desert compared to the seventh
heaven.
In the journey, he meets all the previous prophets of gods
who preached messages previously to humans before Muhammad, namely; Adam,
Jesus, Joseph, Idris, Aaron, and Moses. Finally, Muhammad and Gabriel reached
seventh heaven and received the commands of gods, which included Muhammad
bargaining with god for decreasing prayer times from fifty to five times. After
Muhammad's journey to heavens was completed he was dropped at Jerusalem and
goes back to Mecca to spread the word of god to mankind. Shockingly Muhammad noticed that it was still the
same night on earth and the time hasn’t passed on earth, his long journey to
heavens meant nothing on earth.

In my previous blog,WHEN ANCIENT GODS PAUSED TIME! I have mentioned few incidents from
Hindu mythology when god paused time on earth, also there were few incidents
when humans were taken to heavens (Lokas), but not with the human body! Yes,
when humans were taken to heavens their physical body was replaced with a
different one that could withstand the space and time travel. And in the Islam
mythological story, its quite different, they took Muhammad with the human body
by filling some kind of wisdom in the heart, the human body was able to
withstand the time and space travel.
In this story we need to notice few things, the Buraq: a
strange animal which Muhammad himself has not seen before, that can take him to
long distances in a blink of an eye, did he witness some kind of advanced space
vehicle that he couldn’t describe? What about the wisdom poured in Muhammad’s
heart, was it some kind of advanced medicine developed by an advanced race of
extraterrestrials that could make humans body compatible for space and time
travel? And when he traveled a long distance to different heavens and came back
on the same night, definitely he was mentioning about time dilation in space!
If that was the case what was their goal? Intention? Why do they approach selected humans? Are
they shaping our future? Or trying to establish superiority over the earth? Only
time can answer these questions!
