Masjid Al-Aqsa - Call to Prayer - Fajr (Dawn) Holy Jerusalem video

Beautiful call to prayer (Jerusalem). Close your eyes and let your soul travel to Masjid Al Aqsa. The Isra and Mi'raj (Arabic: الإسراء والمعراج‎, - Are the two parts of a Night Journey that, according to Islamic tradition, the Prophet Muhammad (saw) took during a single night. It has been described as both a physical and spiritual journey. A brief sketch of the story is in sura (chapter) 17 Al-Isra of the Qur'an... and other details come from Hadith, supplemental writings about the life of Muhammad. In the journey, Muhammad travels from Makkah on a heavenly creature called Al-Buraq to "the farthest place of paryer" (in Masjid Al-Aqsa - Jerusalem) where he leads other Prophets in prayer. He then ascends through the seven heavens where he meets with God, who gives Muhammad instructions to take back to the faithful on Earth about the number of times to offer prayers each day... meeting with the blessed Prophet Moses (pbuh) on the way. It is also said where Muhammad ascended from a rock (known as Dome of Rock) the spiritual distance between earth's canopy and heaven are at its closest point in the world.
