Al-Burāq (Arabic: "lightning") is a steed, described as a creature from the heavens which transported the prophets. The most commonly told story is how in the 7th century, Al-Buraq carried the Islamic prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Jerusalem and back during the Isra and Mi'raj or "Night Journey", which is the title of one of the chapters (sura), Al-Isra, of the Quran.

Why take the subway or a taxi when you can ride a winged steed?

“Barak O’ Bama” means “Lightening from the high place, as in Luke Chapter 10:17-20:

17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.

18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

Even critics can't seem to get it right!
This reportedly happened all in a dream!

The illiterate savage was high on drugs or in a catatonic epileptic fit.
