Layered Divine Support During Hardship
- Al-Isra wal-Miʿraj came as layered support during extreme hardship in the Prophet's life.
- Each moment of the journey (waking, heart-cleansing, travel) served as distinct honors and spiritual reinforcement.
Use Prayer As Immediate Refuge
- Use salah as an active refuge when overwhelmed and distressed.
- Perform wudu and pray with the intention of finding calm, as the Prophet ﷺ rushed to prayer during difficulty.
Lessons From Surah Al-Baqarah's Ending Verses
- The closing verses of Surah Al-Baqarah teach precise duʿāʼ language for dealing with incapacity and need.
- They model asking Allah for manageable burdens, companions, forgiveness, and victory.
