It will also be remembered that this vision was seen as well during the same night in which took place the journey of the Barnasha from Makkah to the heavens!From the testimony of Daniel we, as Muslims, must admit that Muhammad’s journey was corporeally performed - a thing of no impossibility to the Omnipotent. There must exist a law in physics according to which a body is not controlled by the main body to which it belongs, or by the law of gravitation, but by the law of velocity. A human body belonging to the earth cannot escape from it unless a superior force of velocity should detach it from the force of gravitation. Then there must also exist another law in physics according to which a light body can penetrate into a thick one and a thick body into an even still thicker or harder one through the means of a superior force, or simply through the force of velocity. Without entering into the details of this subtle question, suffice it to say that before the force of velocity the weight of a solid body, whether moved or touched, is of no concern. We know the rate of the velocity of the light from the sun or a star. If we discharge a bullet at the rate, say, of 2,500 metres a second, we know it penetrates and pierces a body of iron plate, which is several inches thick. Similarly, an angel, who can move with an infinitely greater velocity than that of the light of the sun and even the thought in the mind, could, of course, transport the bodies of Jesus (pbuh) , Muhammad (pbuh) and Elijah with an astounding facility and rapidity, and set at nought the law of gravitation of the globe to which they belonged.St. Paul also mentions a vision he had seen fourteen years before of a man who had been taken up into the
