A depiction of a buraq, a flying horse from Islamic legends which transports prophets. Most famously, it was a buraq which took Muhammad from Mecca to Jerusalem and back in one night, the “Night Journey” upon which Muslim claims to Jerusalem are founded. Illustration from Aceh, Indonesia, circa early 1900s.
