====Others==== Various hadiths add much more details; the {{transliteration|ar|Israʾ}}, which was not present in the previous hadiths of the miraj, is now part of Muhammad's journey from [[Mecca]] to "the farthest place of worship", although the city is not explicitly stated. The journey begins while Muhammad is in the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, when the Archangel Gabriel arrives and brings the prophets' heavenly mount, [[Buraq]]. Buraq carried Muhammad to the "farthest place of worship." Muhammad dismounted, tied Buraq up, and prayed, where he was tested by Gabriel at God's command. [[Anas ibn Malik]] narrated that Muhammad said: "Gabriel brought me a vessel of wine, a vessel of water, and a vessel of milk, and I chose the milk. Gabriel said: 'You have chosen the fitra (natural instinct).'" During the second part of the journey, on the "ladder" of Miraj, Gabriel took him to the heavens, where he circled the [[seven heavens]] and spoke with the previous prophets: [[Abraham in Islam|Abraham]], [[Moses in Islam|Moses]], [[John the Baptist in Islam|John the Baptist]], and [[Jesus in Islam|Jesus]].{{Citation needed|date=March 2025}} In other versions by Ibn Abbas, a transmitter seems to have added to Ibn Abbas' authentic narrative the descent of Muhammad and the meeting with the prophets. These are the stories of the meeting with the prophets and the meeting with Moses, which led to the reduction of the daily prayers, which are not included in Ibn Abbas' primitive version. Whether Ibn Abbas included this in his original narrative or whether it was added by a later transmitter is a matter of debate.<ref name="State University of New York Press"/>
