| Isra mi'ra |
Purwakarta - Isra dan Miraj are two different events, where Isra is the journey of the Prophet from the Grand Mosque to the Aqsa Mosque. The distance between the two is said to be around 1,239 kilometers, at which time the journey could take about a month by horse or camel. While mi'raj is the journey of the Prophet Muhammad SAW from earth to the seventh heaven, then to Sidratul Muntaha.
Isra mi‘raj is an event that occurs at night. It has been confirmed by Allah SWT in Surah Al-Isra: 1
سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَسْرَىٰ بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلًا مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى الَّذِي بَارَكْنَا حَوْلَهُ لِنُرِيَهُ مِنْ آيَاتِنَا ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ
Meaning, "Glory be to Allah who has taken His servant one night from the Grand Mosque to the Aqsa Mosque which We have blessed around him so that We may show him some of Our (greatness) signs. Indeed He is All-Hearing, All-Knowing."
According to Ustadz Bobby (a graduate of Al-Azhar University Cairo Egypt), he explained that human technology can do something similar to the speed of light. Based on the theory of light, the highest speed is the speed of light, light can travel 300 thousand kilometers in one second.

| The theory of the speed of light |
Quoted from the book Penrose, R in 2004 entitled The Road to Reality: A Complete Guide to the Laws of the Universe page 410 explained that the speed of light is a universal physical constant that is important in many fields of physics. The precision value is 299,792,458 meters per second (approximately 3.00×108 m/s), since the length of the meter is defined according to this constant and international standards of time.
The first to propose a theory of light was Empedocles (c. 490-430 BC) and claimed that light had a finite speed. Empedocles stated that light is something in motion, and therefore takes time to travel. Meanwhile, the first person to measure the speed of light was Isaac Beeckman, a Dutch scientist, in 1629. Isaac believed that light needed time to propagate in space. Unfortunately, the measurement method he used at that time was very primitive and did not produce conclusive results.
It wasn't until 1676 that the Danish astronomer Ole Christensen Rømer concluded that it takes 22 minutes for light to travel as far as the diameter of Earth's orbit, which gives the figure 220,000 km/s.
in 1849 for the first time a French scientist named Armand Hippolyte Louis Fizeau made measurements with instruments. And make instruments with dagran like the following picture.

In theory, the speed of light is 315,000 km/s, and the most recent measurements get the speed of light at 299,792,458 m/s.
Quoted from Tech Insider, the travel time from the earth to the moon, which is only 1.3 light seconds. Meanwhile, sunlight takes about 8 minutes 17 seconds to pass the average distance from the Sun's surface to Earth.
In conclusion, it is not impossible if we correlate the events of Isra Mi'raj with the current theory of the speed of light. is possible and true.
