I did a little digging on the "seventh sky" phrase. Seems even more harrowing.

"Muhammad passed through seven heavenly realms. In the First Sky he saw Adam being shown the souls of his descendents both good and bad. In the Second Sky he saw Jesus and John, son of Zachariah. In the Third Sky he saw the handsome Joseph, son of Jacob. In the Fourth Sky he saw Idris, the prophet from before the flood. In the Fifth Sky he saw Moses' older brother, Harun, with his long white beard. In the Sixth Sky Muhammad met a tall man with a hooked nose and Gabriel said it was Moses. In the Seventh Sky Muhammad saw an old man in a seat by the gate to Paradise where 70,000 angels pass through each day but do not return until Judgment Day. Gabriel identified him as Abraham. Gabriel then took Muhammad into Paradise where he spoke to God."

Night Journey

"Who created the seven skies layer upon layer! (It comes in narration of the Prophet Mohammed that on top of the first sky is the second sky, and on top of that is the third, all the way up to the seventh sky. And the distance from one sky to the other is five hundred years of travel)."

7th Sky Journey

Since I think the Islamic faith also recognizes Moses and the Ten Commandments as delivering the Law, and Moses was born somewhere in the 16th century BC and the Commandments were delivered when he was about 80, that would put us roughly 3500 years (7th sky x 500) post Moses.

An end time prophecy of their own?

So what's 3500 lightyears from earth?
