Q
How does prayer and ablution play a role in seeking divine intervention in times of distress?
A
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “(The Prophet) Abraham migrated with his wife Sarah till he reached a town
where there was a king or a tyrant who sent a message, to Abraham, ordering him to send Sarah to
him. So when Abraham had sent Sarah, the tyrant got up, intending to do evil with her, but she got up
and performed ablution and prayed and said, ‘O Allah ! If I have believed in You and in Your Apostle,
then do not empower this oppressor over me.’ So he (the king) had an epileptic fit and started moving
his legs violently. ”
