whether the vision was in a wakeful state but it was a vision there is a difference between a vision and a dream so the prophet saw a vision and in that vision he was traveling and it doesn't by the way it doesn't say anyway that much the Luxor was Jerusalem so I've said that in my last week's show that it's no way does it mention that Masjid al-aqsa is Larousse is Jerusalem hence the early Shia split with the Sunnis on this matter that where does it say they said and
