It marks the beginning of the divine preparation for prophethood before the Quran was revealed.
Six months before his mission, his revelation began through dreams. He would not see a dream except that it came true like the break of dawn.
This means that Allah, the Most High prepared the Prophet ﷺ for prophethood by making his dreams truthful and clear. They were always true, like the light of dawn. This was before the Quranic revelation came down to him in the Cave of Hira.
Before the mission, the Prophet ﷺ loved solitude. He would withdraw to the Cave of Hira for worship and reflection. Then the first signs of prophethood began to appear to him through true dreams.
Allah, the Most High was preparing His Prophet ﷺ to receive the Message (risalah).

It was the first beginning of revelation (wahy).
It marks the beginning of the Message (risalah) and the call to Islam (da'wah).
It teaches the gradual preparation of the Prophet ﷺ for the Message (risalah).
It marks the beginning of the transition from preparation to revelation (wahy).
Early preparation before the public commission.
The one who saw the true dreams and the one with whom revelation began
The truth of the vision is a sign of divine choosing.
Reassurance that Allah prepares His servant for what He wills.
Gradual growth in faith and psychology.
Great beginnings often come with calm preliminaries.

The importance of preparation before launch and expansion.
Being gradual in building major projects.
Be patient through the stages of preparation and do not rush the results.
This is limited to the general lesson, without comparing revelation (wahy) to human experiences.
Revelation (wahy) to the Prophet ﷺ was unique to him and cannot be compared to anything else.
Every major project needs a preparation phase before execution.
