Lessons from Israk Mikraj

The event of Israk and Mikraj is a testament to Allah’s infinite power and the miracle of His Messenger s.a.w. It also reflects Allah’s mercy and love for His beloved Prophet. This event occurred during a deeply challenging period for Rasulullah s.a.w., following the loss of two key figures in his life: his wife, Sayyidatina Khadijah r.a., and his uncle, Abu Talib, both of whom were vital pillars of support in his mission.

The lessons from Israk and Mikraj are numerous. Among them is the importance of patience, and the assurance that with every hardship comes ease, or wisdom which we may have not understood.
