The Buraq is the animal who took the prophet Muhammed to the heavens during the journey of miraj. He is described as this:

Then a white animal which was smaller than a mule and bigger than a donkey was brought to me." ... "The animal's step (was so wide that it) reached the farthest point within the reach of the animal's sight. ..."

—Muhammad al-Bukhari, Sahih al-Bukhari[1]
