Life of the Prophet ﷺ: Day 10

About this lecture

In this tenth session of the Life of the Prophet ﷺ series, the lecture covers the Night Journey and Ascension (Al-Isra wal Mi'raj) in rich detail — from the purification of the Prophet's heart, the journey to Jerusalem, the meetings with the Prophets in the seven heavens, and the gift of the five daily prayers, to the reaction of Quraysh and the stirring story of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq's unwavering faith. The session then transitions to the Prophet's ﷺ outreach at Arab festivals, the early seeds of Islam in Medina through figures like Suwaid ibn Samit and Iyas ibn Mu'adh, and the pivotal meeting with the six men of Khazraj that would set the stage for the Hijrah.
