Isra and Mi'raj
The night commemorating the Prophet Muhammad's night journey from Mecca to Jerusalem and his ascension to heaven. In Libya, the mosques are illuminated, and the imams deliver sermons about the spiritual significance of the journey. The families prepare special meals, and the children are told the story of the Prophet's journey on the winged horse Buraq. The celebration is quieter than Eid, but the sense of wonder is present in every mosque and every home. . 2026: May 14. 2027: May 6.
