The second ingredient, that helps a person bear and get through all unpleasant experiences, is Salah. As explained in previous posts Sabr covers all the different forms of prayers including Salah. However, Salah is the most perfect model of Sabr. For, in the state of Salah, one binds oneself to obedience and worship, and restrains oneself not only from all that is sinful, but even from what is otherwise permissible e.g. from eating or drinking or talking. Hence Salah is a practical demonstration of Sabr in which one devotes oneself totally to Ibadah and refrains from all sins.
