On the "Night Journey" Burak, (the heavenly white winged mount) was brought for the Prophet to ride and Anas tells us that it became frisky upon seeing the Prophet whereupon Gabriel said to Burak, "Would you do this to Muhammad? No one who has ever ridden you is more honorable to Allah than he." Upon hearing this Burak broke into a sweat. (Shaykh Darwish added: It is well known that Burak was the heavenly mount of the prophets, however, it had been centuries since he was last ridden. Burak was also aware of the esteemed rank of the Prophet, and it was this that caused him to become frisky, then when Gabriel spoke to him about it, he broke out in a sweat.)
Abu Hurayrah, together with several other Companions tells us that the Prophet said, "Five things have been given to me that no other prophet before me was given. Through terror being cast into the hearts of my enemies I was given help a month before I arrived. The earth has been made a mosque for me and a place of purity, therefore when the time for prayer arrives, any man of my nation is able to pray. The spoils of war which were unlawful to all previous prophets have been made lawful to me. I have been sent for all peoples. I have been given the intercession (on the Day of Judgement)."
In reference to the entire world, the Prophet said, "I was sent for all races, the fair and the dark." This last statement has been explained in two ways, the first is that "the dark" refers to the Arabs and "the fair" non-Arabs. The second explanation is that "the fair" refers to mankind and "the dark" to jinn who were created from fire and live in remote areas but there are also those who live among humans.
Abu Hurayrah also tells us that the Prophet said, "Through terror being cast into the hearts of my enemies, I was given victory, and I have been given the eloquences of all the words. While I slept, I had a vision in which the keys of the treasures of the earth were brought to me, and placed in my hands." In addition to this in another transmission is, "The rank of prophethood was sealed for all time by me."
Amir, Ukba's son narrates that the Prophet said, "On your behalf, I will go in advance before you, and I will be a witness for you. By Allah, I am looking at my Pool now. I have been given the keys to the treasures of the earth. By Allah, I do not fear that you will associate (another with Allah) after me, rather, I fear you will vie with one another for worldly gain."
Amr's son, Abdullah tells us that the Messenger of Allah said, "I am Muhammad, the unlettered Prophet, there is no prophet after me. I was given all the eloquences
