Al-Mi'raj or Almiraj (Arabic: ٱلْمِعْرَاج - al-miʿrāj) or simply Miraj or Mi'raj is a mythical rabbit/hare-like beast said to live on a mysterious island called Jazirah al-Tennyn (Sea-Serpent Island) within the confines of the Indian Ocean. It takes the form of a rabbit or rarely a hare with a unicorn-like horn, or two horns. It is mentioned in Zakariya Ibn Muhammad Al-Qazwini's Marvels of Things Created and Miraculous Aspects of Things Existing (often shortened to The Wonders of Creation).
In modern depiction of Almiraj was often depicted as a unicorn bunny with cute looks and magical abilities similar to the unicorn's magical powers.
The fictional name for almiraj is called a Bunnicorn/Bunicorn which is a portmanteau of a bunny and a unicorn.
