Masjid-al-Buraq is a small but very holy place for Muslims. It is in the south-west corner of the compound of Masjid-al-Aqsa in Jerusalem. Because people think that's where our Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAWW) tied the Buraq (the riding animal upon which he rode during the Night of Ascension).

During the "Night Journey," the Holy Prophet Hazarat Muhammad (SAWW) was taken to Masjid-Al-Aqsa and then led in the direction of the heavens. This is also written in the Holy Quran.

Buraq was the name of the animal that helped our Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAWW) get from Jerusalem to the heavens during the miracle of the "Night Journey." From different Hadiths, it is clear that Buraq had wings and was white in colour. Also, it wasn't very tall and moved at a speed that was hard to imagine.

So, Masjid-Al-Buraq is right where our Holy Prophet tied Buraq (SAWW). So, that place became known as Masjid-Al-Buraq in the future. In the same way, Buraq Wall is the name of the wall where he was tied.

The base of the Buraq Wall was made of 45 stone courses. Only 17 of the stone courses were built below ground. The other 28 stone courses were built above ground. An interesting fact about the Buraq wall is that the four simple stone courses above the 17 courses from the Muslim Mamluk Period were built by the Muslim Umayyad.
