The example the Qur’an gives here is of a dual nature, combining patience in both misfortune and adversity, combining physical and financial jihad; that is, pilgrimage (2: 189-202).
It is, indeed, a three-pronged example,
because it includes a reference to fighting the enemies of God, which involves patience in times of peril. (2: 190-195).
Perhaps we should not forget to refer here to the easy passage through which the discussion progresses from talking about fasting to talking about pilgrimage.
This is achieved through the references to the new moons, which God has defined as indicators of the periods of both fasting and pilgrimage. (2: 190.)
Perhaps it is appropriate to take a short pause here, to dwell on a particular aspect of the flow of topics in the Qur’an as we have here a vivid example of it.
When pilgrimage is mentioned the first time, it is not followed immediately by a detailed outline of its rules and regulations.
In fact, 6 verses, 190-195, separate the first mention of pilgrimage and the outline of its regulations.
