Sometimes the grief is intense, like when the Prophet peace be upon him lost Khadijah and his uncle in the same year And it's thought how will this grief ever mend  How will the loss ever be replaced  How will the devastation after Taif be healed  And then a miraculous journey happened - Al isra Wal Mi'raj To reaffirm the love and importance of Al Aqsa in our hearts forever and as a source of mending for the beloved’s heart (peace be upon him) جبر خاطر للحبيب  The loss of Khadijah stayed with him peace be upon him years later but the gift of salat Alhamdullilah, we and billions of Muslims are continuing to benefit from and find comfort and refuge in many years later and until the end of time  Sometimes we go through really hard things  Sometimes we may feel alone in the pain  Sometimes the pain may stay with us for a while  But perhaps through the pain  We are reminded Allah with His love and care is always with us and… A greater pain is prevented, A greater lesson is learned, A greater grief is healed, A greater gift is gained, And what greater gift than continuing to seek closeness to Our Loving Creator through salah, and perhaps a beautiful, heart reviving, and uplifting journey awaits us too in Sha Allah.
