When Hażrat Ali would make intention to Pray, his
whole body would start trembling and the colour of his face would change. He
used to say:-
‘The time has arrived to implement that trust
which was offered to the Heavens and the Earth and which they did not have the
courage to take on’
Once an
arrow hit Hażrat Ali's thigh and went through to the other side of the thigh.
When it was tried to pull out the arrow he felt an awful lot of pain. One of
the other companions of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) suggested that the arrow be
taken out when Hażrat Ali is Praying and so Hażrat Ali made intention and started
to Pray. He got himself so focused and engrossed in prayer that he became
totally unaware of his surroundings. During this time the arrow
was easily removed and the wound was bandaged. In the process Hażrat Ali did
not even feel the slightest of pain.

Mehrāj means to enter the world of the unseen. When a believer attains Mehrāj through prayer, Angels appear in front of him. He travels through the Heavens, and through the blessings of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) he comes to know his Lord.
