Isra and Mi'raj

La noche que conmemora el viaje nocturno del Profeta Muhammad de La Meca a Jerusalén y su ascensión al cielo. En Libia, las mezquitas se iluminan y los imanes pronuncian sermones sobre el significado espiritual del viaje. Las familias preparan comidas especiales y a los niños se les cuenta la historia del viaje del Profeta en el caballo alado Buraq. La celebración es más tranquila que el Eid, pero la sensación de asombro está presente en cada mezquita y cada hogar. 2026: 14 de mayo. 2027: 6 de mayo.
