According to research conducted at Michigan University, depression and stress are observed to lesser extent in the devout. And, according to findings at Rush University in Chicago, the early death rate among people who worship and pray regularly is some 25% lower than in those with no religious convictions. Another study conducted on 750 people, who underwent angiocardiography, proved scientifically the “curative power of prayer.” It was established that the death rate among heart patients who prayed decreased by 30% within a year after their operations.
Examples of the prayers mentioned in the Qur’an are:
And Ayyub when he called out to his Lord, “Great harm has afflicted me and You are the Most Merciful of the merciful,” We responded to him and removed from him the harm which was afflicting him and restored his family to him, and the same again with them, as a mercy direct from Us and a Reminder to all worshippers. (Qur’an, 21:83)
And Dhu’n-Nun [Yunus] when he left in anger and thought We would not punish him. He called out in the pitch darkness: “There is no god but You! Glory be to You! Truly I have been one of the wrongdoers.” We responded to him and rescued him from his grief. That is how We rescue the believers. (Qur’an, 21:87-88)
And Zakariyya when he called out to his Lord, “My Lord, do not leave me on my own, though You are the Best of Inheritors.” We responded to him and gave him Yahya, restoring for him his wife’s fertility. They outdid one another in good actions, calling out to Us in yearning and in awe, and humbling themselves to Us. (Qur’an, 21:89-90)
Nuh called out to Us and what an excellent Responder We are! (Qur’an, 37:75)
As has already been stated, prayer must not only be for alleviation of sickness, or other mundane problems. A sincere believer must always pray to Allah and accept whatever comes from Him. The fact that the benefits of prayer revealed in many verses of the Qur’an are now being recognised scientifically, once again reveals the miraculous nature of the Qur’an.
If My servants ask you about Me, I am near. I answer the call of the caller when he calls on Me. They should therefore respond to Me and believe in Me so that hopefully they will be rightly guided. (Qur’an, 2:186)
