According to the Koran:{{cquote| Glory be to Him, who carried His servant [Muhammad] by night from the Holy Mosque [in Mecca] to the Further Mosque the precincts of which We have blessed, that We might show him some of Our signs. He is the All-hearing, the All-seeing.<ref>Koran 17:1, Arberry, A.J. ''The Koran Interpreted: A Translation'', 1996, Oxford World's Classics.</ref>}}This verse is conventionally interpreted to mean that Mohammad was miraculously transported to a "Further Mosque," in Arabic ''al-Masjid al-ʾAqṣā'', as part of a one night journey in 621 and briefly ascended to heaven there. It is widely accepted as a vision, a dream, he stated he had.<br>
