During this meeting Muhmmad

(pbuh) led these all holy prophets (a.s.) in prayer or Salat.

The event of Mirraj followed this event. During the event of Miraaj Muhmmad (pbuh) was taken to the heavens up to the Dome of the Rock (i.e. Arsh). Here he (pbuh) saw the signs of Allah (s.w.t.) or God. During the Miraaj the offering of the five daily prayers was made compulsory by Allah (s.w.t.) for all the Muslims.

At the conclusion of this event Muhmmad (pbuh) was brought back to the holy Ka’bah. The whole event lasted for a few hours of the night.

These both events (Israa and Miraaj) are mentioned in the first ayat of verse of the Qur’an’s Chapter 17 i.e.

Surah Bani Israel ‘The Children of Israel.’

Mockery by pagan Meccans:

When pagan Meccans heard of these two events as per their habit they again mocked and laughed

at Muhmmad (pbuh). As again the truth prevailed. But when they heard from him the particular and accurate details of the city of Jerusalem and various other things on his way they had to surrender to the truth. They were compelled to accept his

statements and stopped mocking at him.
