Well, nothing more must be said to establish it being cool (it's a cute bunny with a unicorn horn), I'll say more on use.
The why is because it is a mythological creature, not just a fan-made dream.
One was supposedly gifted to Alexander the Great, no less!

So, unlike many of the others, this one has historical/mythological bona-fides, and anything actually mentioned in mythology is a worthy addition, in my opinion, since it can add so much to a game emulating those periods or flavor. It would fit right in for any Arabian-themed or flavoured game- Ylaruam in Mystara, Nithia in the Hollow World setting, Al-Qadim and Mulhorand in the Forgotten Realms, Zakhara in 5th edition, Stygia in the Coinan setting, the AD&D 'Desert of Desolation' series, the basic D&D 'Master of the Desert Nomads' series, etc.
Further, this would make a perfect (albeit large at 3') familiar for a wizard or low-level companion for a druid. It's only 1 hd, only does as much damage as a dagger, no special attacks or defenses, normal armor class, animal intelligence, and the description points out that they can be wonderful companions. Keen sight and sense of smell, but no listed bonuses for it. And it is fast, but not overwhelmingly so. That is not unbalancing in any way. It would definitely be something unique for the player to have.
There is also one thing that stands out as well.
For 'MAGIC RESISTANCE' it says to 'See below', however, the description does not mention anything about this at all.
Was this an editing mistake and it should have said none, or did they leave part of the description out? One could very easily use it either way- either ignore it, or grant it the same resistance as a unicorn- save as 11th level mage, immune to charms, hold spells, and death magic. The former is probably better as a familiar, the latter for a druid's companion. You could have both types intermix, maybe only the largest or the eldest have such properties.
And if you do decide to give it some of those properties, the horn might be valuable in a similar way. Unicorn horns are potent spell components, but they are intelligent, good creatures, so many groups would not even try to acquire one. But the Al-Mi'Raj is simply an animal, so you do not have the same ethical problems.
Also, it's a cute bunny with a unicorn horn.
Cool.
