Ascension of the Believer

The Prophet ﷺ had went on the Night Journey & Ascension during the lowest time in his life and received the greatest gift. If we experience a hardship, we may think "Where is my Ascension?" Well, our ascension is the gift that he ﷺ received, the daily five prayers.

Highlights

To understand the context and significance of al-Isrāʾ wa al-Miʿrāj, particularly how it occurred during the Prophet’s ﷺ most difficult period and what it teaches us about divine wisdom during hardship.

To reframe personal trials through the lens of ascension, helping students recognize how hardship can become a means of spiritual elevation rather than despair.

To deepen appreciation for the five daily prayers as the believer’s Miʿrāj, exploring ṣalāh as a direct gift, refuge, and intimate connection with Allah ﷻ.

To cultivate a transformative relationship with ṣalāh, equipping students with practical tools to experience presence, consistency, and spiritual growth through prayer in everyday life.
