According to traditions, the Buraq also carried other prophets like Abraham over long distances in a very short time. The Encyclopaedia of Islam, based on Al-Damiri's writings, suggests that "al-burāq" comes from the Arabic word "barq," which means "lightning" or has other related meanings like "flash" or "shine."

He spoke with God who gave him important instructions, including the command for Muslims to pray fifty times a day. After Moses suggested reducing the prayers, Muhammad went back to God several times until the number was reduced to five. According to Ibn Ishaq, the Buraq also carried Abraham when he visited Hagar and Ishmael.

Marcelina Almeida (around 1830–1880) was a writer from Uruguay. She lived in Montevideo since she was young. Almeida used the names 'Abel' and 'Reine mi bella acclamada' (an anagram of her full name) for her writings. Her book, "Por una fortuna una cruz", is known as the first Uruguayan feminist novel. Biography. Marcelina Almeida, also known as Marcelina Almeida Abel, was born around 1830 in Argentina. Her exact birth and death dates are unknown. In a poem, Francisco Acuña de Figueroa described her as a Uruguayan by adoption, born in Argentina. Almeida's romantic novel "Por una fortuna una cruz" was published in Montevideo in 1860. It talks about "the forced marriage of a fifteen-year-old girl with a twenty-five-year-old man". The book started a big debate in Montevideo's newspapers. People discussed the book's quality and the fact that a woman questioned marriage. Almeida faced personal attacks, many under fake names. Virginia Cánova, a researcher, explained that Almeida supported liberal feminism, talking about women's lack of rights and how they were always seen as minors under men's protection. She criticized forced marriages, where the father decides for the daughter. In 1991, Cánova found a copy of the novel in the National Library of Uruguay, reviving works missing from Uruguayan literary history. This allowed a limited reissue of the book, along with a study about "The origins of feminism in Uruguay." The study shows that feminism began in the early 19th century and not in the early 20th century, as previously thought. Female writers like Almeida, not María Eugenia Vaz Ferreira and Delmira Agustini, were the pioneers. 8 Almeida also wrote poems, a short story, and articles between 1860-61 for the "Semanario Uruguayo" and poems for the literary magazine "La Aurora de Montevideo" between 1862 and 1863. Almeida died around 1880.

Hadith rejectors (Arabic: منكرو الحديث), also known as Hadith deniers, are Muslims who reject the authority of the hadiths.

Thus, they believed, the true legacy of the Islamic prophet Muhammad was to be found elsewhere, i.e. in the Sunnah, which is separate from the hadith.  Similarly, some sects of the Kharijites (Arabic: الخوارج) also rejected the hadith; there were some who opposed even the writing down of the Hadith itself for fear that it would compete, or even replace the Qur'an. The Khawarij believed in the Quran as the only source of Islamic law.  Like Ahl al-Kalām, Mu'tazilites also rejected the hadiths as the basis for Islamic law, while at the same time accepting the Sunnah and Ij
