Did the Prophet ascend to the heavens on al-Buraq?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner asks: Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ascend to the heavens on the mount al-Buraq, or was his Isra only on al-Buraq?

Answer:
Al-Buraq is only used for the Isra on the earth, carrying the Messenger from Makkah to Bayt al-Maqdis on al-Buraq. As for his ascent to the heavens, that is by the ascending Mi'raj, which no one knows except Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). It is not al-Buraq.
