In Islamic tradition, Haizum (Arabic: حيزوم) is the horse of the archangel Gabriel. It is a white, flaming, spiritual horse that has wings like that of a pegasus and can fly swiftly from one cosmic plane to another in a second. Haizum was God's gift to Gabriel for pleasing Him.
A legend based on sura Ta-Ha, 96 relates that dust from Haizum's hoofprints was thrown the golden calf’s mouth.
