Carol Vorderman, who’s gone from selling loans to Green Party propaganda, has called the brilliant @_ConnieShaw a “complete idiot” and “disgraceful fool” who “needs to shut up”. Taken from her Instagram account below ⬇️.

Moby, a privileged white, bourgeois male is ‘disappointed to be heterosexual’. Like most ‘trans’ ideologues he’s a man in search of a cause. He could have chosen to challenge sexism, ableism or racism but instead he chose the easy option, other privileged white, bourgeois males.

Moby doesn’t like ‘Lola’ because the lyrics are ‘transphobic’. I think it’s fab so here are my top 5 troon tunes: 5. I’m a boy - The Who 4. He’s a woman, she’s a man - Scorpions 3. Arnold Layne - Pink Floyd 2. Dude looks like a lady - Aerosmith 1. Lola - The Kinks (obvs!)

We believe in the Night Journey (Isra’) and the Ascension (Mi’raj) because we believe in an All-Powerful Creator who is not bound by the physical laws He Himself created.
If we believe that God (Glorified and Exalted be He) created the entire universe, the billions of galaxies, and the intricate laws of physics out of nothing, then moving a human being across distances and through heavens is a trivial matter for His power.
A miracle, by definition, is an event that transcends the natural order to demonstrate the authority of the Creator and the truthfulness of His Prophets. If an event followed the laws of physics, it wouldn't be a miracle; it would be ordinary science.
From a Christian or Jewish perspective, the idea of a miraculous journey or a heavenly creature should not be strange or cause for sarcasm, as the Bible is filled with similar accounts that require the same level of faith:
Elijah’s Chariot of Fire: In the Old Testament (2 Kings 2:11), it is recorded that "a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared... and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven." If a believer accepts that Elijah was taken to heaven by horses of fire, why would they find the Buraq—a heavenly creature—unbelievable?
The Ascension of Jesus: The New Testament (Acts 1:9) states that Jesus (peace be upon him) was "taken up" into heaven while his disciples watched. If God could take Jesus up to heaven, He certainly has the power to take Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) on a similar journey.
Philip’s Transport: In Acts (8:39), it is mentioned that the Spirit of the Lord "caught away Philip" and he suddenly found himself at Azotus, a great distance away. This is a miraculous transport through space, identical in principle to the Night Journey.
The creature the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) rode is called the Buraq. In Arabic, the name is derived from the root word Barq, which means "lightning."
It was not a "winged horse" in the sense of a biological animal from a fairy tale. It was a unique, heavenly creature created by God for this specific event. Its speed was described by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as "placing its hoof at the furthest point its eye could see." This indicates a speed that transcends our earthly understanding of biology and motion.
Conclusion
If one rejects the Night Journey because it "defies physics," they must, by the same logic, reject the Virgin Birth of Jesus, the parting of the Red Sea by Moses, and the ascension of Elijah.
As Muslims, we do not pick and choose which miracles of God to believe in based on how "modern" they sound. We believe that for the Creator of the heavens and the earth, nothing is impossible.
The question is not "How can a horse fly?" but rather "Do you believe in a God who is truly All-Powerful?" If the answer is yes, then the Isra’ and Mi’raj are simply a testament to that infinite power.
As Allah says in the Quran regarding this event (Surah Al-Isra 17:1):
"Exalted is He who took His Servant by night from Al-Masjid Al-Haram to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, whose surroundings We have blessed, to show him of Our signs. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Seeing."

Wait! . . . something queer’s going on here. Maybe it’s not impossible that he believes that he believes things. Like a sophist. But he said “I believe in Justice,”. . . he doesn’t! Why is he laughing? You can hear the laughter in his voice.
