Lie algebra of a normal Lie subgroup ($H◃G⟹[\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h}]\subseteq \mathfrak{h}$)

Conjugation by every element of $G$ preserves a normal Lie subgroup $H$. Its differential therefore preserves $\mathfrak{h}=T_{e}H$. Differentiate that invariance along $\exp (tX)$ to obtain $\mathrm{ad}(X)\mathfrak{h}\subseteq \mathfrak{h}$, proving that $\mathfrak{h}$ is an ideal of a Lie algebra. Closed subgroups have a canonical Lie-subgroup structure; an arbitrary abstract subgroup need not.
