buraq

çok hakikatli hayvan.
then he [gabriel] brought the buraq, handsome-faced and bridled, a tall, white beast, bigger than the donkey but smaller than the mule. he could place his hooves at the farthest boundary of his gaze. he had long ears. whenever he faced a mountain his hind legs would extend, and whenever he went downhill his front legs would extend. he had two wings on his thighs which lent strength to his legs.
he bucked when muhammad came to mount him. the angel jibril (gabriel) put his hand on his mane and said: "are you not ashamed, o buraq? by allah, no-one has ridden you in all creation more dear to allah than he is." hearing this he was so ashamed that he sweated until he became soaked, and he stood still so that the prophet mounted him.[2]
