The Relationship of Prayer and its Impact on the Health of the Body and Human Life

Individual Works

Mental Relaxation: The great human being lost in today's societies is a peaceful mind that, according to the Holy Qur'an, is a reassurance of the heart. All human effort in life is to reach peace. He uses the material and other material resources to calm down and reduce his anxiety. The most important human problem in the present era is the lack of calm. Some scholars call the present era an age of anxiety (Prosecutor, 1380, p. 1, p. 60). Indeed, the attainment of human perfection and, in general, God, who created man to create himself, must live together with Peace and tranquility in the world.

The Holy Qur'an considers one of the characteristics of the faithful to be a confidence and calmness of heart. The only thing that provides peace and security to man is God, and in this regard he says: Those who believe in God, their hearts are remembered by God Calms down. Beware that only God's memory is calming down (Rood: 28). Given the precedence of Allah for the verb that signifies the verse, the meaning of the verse is that there is no calm and certainty when God is not satisfied.

As God commemorates peace, remembering God makes life easy and makes life difficult to keep alive. The psychological explanation of this feature is that God's remembrance of man takes away from the desires and impulses that are tense for him, and leads to the distortion of attention to mere enjoyment, which is usually a failure to exploit them. Strengthening the relationship with God and approaching him. The emergence of problems for such a person has him a major goal, and because he feels himself on the path to achievement, he does not regard a life as hard and tense.

It is clear that only those who believe in the pilgrimage of the holy places and the grave mosques of the innocent (peace be upon him) establish God in their hearts, and through their sacred acts, they have gained their worldly happiness and their afterlife, they reach peace. The tranquility of the believers is a special feature that reflects the co-ordination between their psychic elements and their proper organization by controlling the opposite demands and the romance of the soul in terms of humility and convictions against its owner. Such a gift has been granted only to the believer, and this calm can also be seen on his face (Mousavi Ali, 1382, p. 8). This calm is not exterior and superficial, but deep and deep to the end. The pilgrim establishes a connection with the holy places with the pilgrims, and, in the shadow of this connection, the pilgrims give their hearts a fortune, polish and cleanse their souls from turmoil and filthiness.

Pargament and Matton (1992) also found that religious practices such as pilgrimage and worship reduced anger and anxiety. In a research on 400 subjects, Vanessa and Wintrack (1995) concluded that their participation in religious ceremonies, such as pilgrimage and worship, reduced the participants' mental disorders to other people are associated (Ratha, 1382, p. 2, p. 744). Discontinuity of attachment: The attachment of some human beings too many of the worldly and material manifestations is the cause of despair and despair, and consequently suffering and depression. Although the goal is the existence of material facilities for the welfare of mankind in this world but, these facilities cannot be absolute in all aspects of human tranquility.

The material manifestations, with all their beauty and excitement, are such that, as a rule, those who possess them are in sadness and in fear of losing or keeping them, and they are regretting what they do not have, and they will do their utmost. They use to accumulate more of them. Indeed, being equal and dependent is sadness and anxiety about losing something and regretting and regretting what is not -Ahmadi, 2009 (p. 79) In God's vision, the greatness of man is more than that of attaching to something. Everything is for man, and he himself belongs solely to God and pure joy and absolute perfection. Imam Sadiq (as) says: "The believer is from Allah, He is neither connected nor continuous, nor separated and discrete." They said to Imam, what is the meaning of this sentence? They answered, that is, man is not connected in any way to say that man deserves this position and is dependent on God, he will blot out of what he is not -Majlesi, 1403 ( p. 75, p. 175) At the pilgrimage sites, the feeling of attachment to God and the Imams (peace be upon him) as a result of the pilgrimage creates a feeling that the human being is deficient in any color and smell. Disconnects the relationship with the glorious people of the world from mankind, and he does not lose his peace when he is in difficult worldly and material affairs. Strengthening the hope: Hope in man leads to the work and effectiveness of his activities. Hope causes human movement. According to surveys, any living creature with hope will continue to do its daily routine. If an animal's attempt to achieve its purpose is ineffective and does not benefit from it, or does not have the hope for it, it will cease its activity and will suffer despair and frustration (Seif, 1376, p. 221) Pilgrimage gives confidence to man and invites him to drown in a desperate vortex.

Despair from a psychological point of view threatens the mental health of a person, and man has a higher mental health with hope. Hope is important enough to release the patient from his illness. It is stated in narratives that whenever you go to the patient, you can hope for his health and longevity, although this hope may not be effective in divine justice, but he will please the patient and he will calm and relieve him (Majlisi, 1403, p. 81, p. 225).

The hopeless man who experiences numerous failures in the course of numerous attempts, and his efforts fail to succeed, gives rise to helplessness, which has such disastrous consequences in his physical and mental as well as his personal and social life, which may not be compensated for -Seif, 1376 (p. 243).

Alexis Carl says: Praise affects the soul and body and strengthens the mystical feeling and moral feelings. On the face of those who pray we see sense of conscientiousness, diminished jealousy and evil, good deeds and benevolence towards others. The praises show their characteristics with very distinct and distinct signs: heartbeat, dignity of behavior, expansion, unsatisfactory happiness, talent of guidance, preparation for acceptance of the right and satisfaction with the Lord's mercy -Karl, 2008(p. 31).

In the Holy Quran, God calls on humans to never despise themselves and not neglect God's mercy, and even in religious teachings, despair of God's mercy is considered as a great sinner (Yousef / 87). Reducing anxiety: It causes human movement, and if it was not anxiety, some people would become lazy and life was hard for them. But if the anxiety goes out of moderation, it's a disorder.

Anxiety is defined as an agonizing sensation that is defined by a current, traumatic situation, or with an expectation of danger that depends on an indefinite object. In other words, anxiety requires a concept of insecurity or a threat that man does not clearly understand the source of it -Prosecutor, 2001 (p. 1).

The source of concern in the material vision is the loss of material happiness and pleasures and worldly pleasures. But in Divine insight, the loss of the divine bliss and the divine judgment is a matter of concern. Anxiety and anxiety are always among the greatest disasters in human life and the consequences of it in the individual and social life of man are quite obvious. From the perspective of the Holy Qur'an, anxiety and anxiety are considered to be a disaster for man due to the fear and loss of the blessings and pleasures of the world's fast- moving enjoyment and deprivation from them. Humans are seeking perfection and prosperity. Now if a person does not recognize the truth of his happiness and, as a result, he is deprived of his bliss, he will naturally become anxious and anxious. And if a person recognizes the origin of the existence of charity and the person whom the world and the human being care for him, he will trust with confidence and comfort. He will consider God's right to himself, in his own right and in his true interest, and his anxiety and concern will be meaningless to him -Mesbah, 1380 (p. 2, p. 300).

In religious teachings and teachings, various methods and methods are used to cope with anxiety, the most important factor for achieving calm and preserving it and overcoming anxiety, is believed in God. Amir al-Mu'minin Imam Ali (pbuh) narrates in a narrative: "Believe to Allah in order to be safe" (Tamimi, 1388, p. 2, p. 174); In another narration, he mentions that God is equal to calm and security, and they say: Belief is the security and peace.

William James says: Belief undoubtedly is the most effective cure for anxiety (James, 1993, p. 168). Belief in God has many examples, such as prayer, fasting and pilgrimage, one of which is the case of pilgrimage. Naturally, the person who visits is relieved by his relationship with the Lord and the Imams (peace be upon him), he overcuts his anxiety and destroys it. Strengthening the spirit of prayer: Prayer is the key with which the divine treasure can be opened. Prayer is a means of glorifying Allah and the brain of divine worship. Praying is the key to God's mercy and the blessings of divine blessings. The prayer of the ascension of soul is the culmination of unity.

William James praises one of the characteristics of religious life. Praying or connecting with the soul of the world of creation is a process in which a truly fruitful work is done and spiritual power comes to the fore with psychological or physical effects in man. Prayer is a gain of power and spiritual energy or of divine mercy that tells the real, not imaginary or illusory. He then analyzes, with an allegory, the powerful effect of prayer in such a way that a person feels that a force enters his body, just as we feel warm in the sun we sit down. This force can be used efficiently, just as we use the sunlight and magnifying glass to burn a piece of wood (ibid., P. 178) In some verses of the Holy Qur'an, prayer has been raised as establishing the relationship of man with God: Say: "If your prayer does not, my Lord will not give you any respect (Forghan: Verse 77). All worship, such as prayer, fasting, and hajj have a great deal of knowledge about human behavior. Worship organizes the structure of a person's life. Prayer and prayer is a religious practice of behavior in which man directly and with his God needs his secret, and his spiritual state is usually pleasing to the people.

When a person feels like pleasing to God, he feels humorous when he wants something other than God. Therefore prayer is both willing and desirable, both means, and the end is both an introduction and a result. God's partakers do not feel any tediousness -Motahari, 1375 (p. 84) Prayer leads to the spiritual development of man and humanity. Prayer is worship itself, and the only way to human evolution is to worship. Praying through prayer, he tries to create the divine attributes, and aspires to attribute God to attributes such as kindness and forgiveness; he is also kind to others and with the passing. The greatest benefit of prayer and even worship is to prevent the outbreak of the soul and to destroy selfishness as the eradication of all moral disadvantages and preparing itself for the acquisition of all virtues - Mesbah, 1380 (p. 2, p. 39).

In the book of Nitya, Alex Carl says: "The lack of prayer among the people is equal to the collapse of that nation." A community that has killed itself need not be immune from corruption and decay. He also says that prayer, while creating calm, provokes a kind of astonishment and inner expansion in human brain activities, and sometimes provokes the heroic and brave spirit -Karl, 1338 (p. 32).

Recognizing for repentance: The Holy Quran considers repentance a unique method of treating feelings of guilt, because repentance or returning to the Almighty God will forgive sins and strengthen the spirit of the human hope of seeking divine satisfaction. For this reason, it reduces the severity of anxiety in humans. In addition, repent often lends man to repair and self-building, and prepares his character in a way that recognizes his worth more and increases his confidence and satisfaction in him, which, in turn, strengthens the feeling Security and peace of mind will mankind. Allah says in the Holy Quran: Say: 'O my servants, who have set you up too much, do not despair of God's mercy. Indeed, God forgives all the sins that He is Forgiving, Most Merciful (Zomar. 53).

The feeling of guilt is the cause of the sluggishness of the soul. This feels the frustration of life. The sin of the work is felt to be absurd; he loses his motivation to continue his life. Sin is anxious and worried. The feeling of guilty is a constant thought. Sin is always thinking of how to get rid of this collar. This thought, like a terrible nightmare, shadows his soul, makes him anxious and relieves him of calm. Repentance one of the best ways to escape from the nightmare is to feel guilty because it leads to the forgiveness of sin and the strengthening of human hope for divine satisfaction and, as a result, reduces the intensity of anxiety.

Repentance consists of: a kind of internal revolution, or a rebellion that comes from its own territory against man (Motahhari, 1375, p. 128). Repentance is a voluntary and vigorous behavior that man himself deviates from himself and On the right track. It is clear that this behavior of the burden makes him feel guilty and diminishes his anxiety and provokes his activity and determination in him. In other words, when a person feels that his behavior has fallen into the soul and his personality's coherence and organization has been threatened, he is struggling with an all-out attempt to get out of it. Reason governs its psychological system. In the pilgrimage, this connection of the heart causes the human being to pay attention to him, to disregard his actions and conduct, and to seek to correct it. Confessing the believer to sin and repenting to the womb, he discourages him from trying to keep the thought of guilt from the mind in order to escape the feeling of guilt. This is more evident in pilgrimage places.

Meditation: Meditation is awareness effort to focus attention. God created man in the best and most beautiful way. The power of knowing goodness and evil has enabled him to set him free. He has created him with a divine nature, perfect and healthy. The most important and fundamental mechanism, the transformation and self- control for man, is the thinking and activation of reason. The attainment of the goal, which is eternal and perfect, becomes a transformation by dissolving conflicts by means of self-control and assisting God and assisting the intellect. Among these tools and techniques in various stages of self-control which is a movement from appearance to back ground. Self-control is: immortality, thinking, determination, compassion, meditation, calculation, remembrance, and repentance, which provide the ground for achieving a pure life, to be established with God -John the Great, 1999 (p. 88) In Islamic culture, self-monitoring and consciousness for attaining perfection and development has four stages: intercourse, meditation, calculation, and perfection. Participation means that human beings make sure that they take care of their own behavior and speech every day, and that they will try to do good and good deeds and avoid mischief and deeds. Meditation means: By focusing on your actions, be vigilant; take care of your behaviors carefully. The calculation is that a person, with a precise and fair evaluation, examines his daily tasks and assesses the extent to which he or she is inclined to do the intended behaviors. It means that the man is for himself.

Recognizing the accomplishments and thank God, and on the other hand, for the sake of the shortcomings, he will repent and ultimately repent -Mosavi Khomeini, 1997 (p. 25).

Social Effects

Praying and attending holy places in the social dimension can play a significant role. This role is the establishment of the relationship between the members. Particularly, communal worship as a religious reality in Islamic thought causes the association of members of a society and leads to the establishment of a communion between the nobility in sacred places. Communion and communion through meaningful communication make social and religious behavior meaningful and meaningful. The social and collective works of prayer and prayer can be seen in the following cases. Empathy: Religious people who believe in the prophets and infidels attend pilgrimage, prayer and prayer in the mosque, the church and the synagogue, and this leads them to hope and prosperity; they have this feeling and certainty. They have the same prophets, or they are sympathetic to them. They are sympathetic to them; they are present and communicate with them a message of affection and integrity.

In psychology, empathy is also of particular importance. For this reason, Rogers has put one of the important pillars of therapy into empathy between the therapist and the therapist (Ratha, 2003, p. 754). The empathy and intimate communication between counseling and counseling will accelerate the treatment.

Also, in celebrations and social ceremonies, a kind of integration with a sense of general sympathy leads people closer to each other, and the sharing of happiness among all and, consequently, pain relief. Religious ceremonies, which mostly involve human encounters with a common behavior, after a short time, a kind of integration and sympathy is created in the majority of the present population in that place, which makes it easy to feel and share in a common pain and collective support. And it delivers pleasant emotions. This allows the group to think of its own moments of self-esteem, and ultimately, all individuals are directed to a fixed reference. The feeling that God is the protector of all human beings, is only able and merciful to him and understands and takes away the pain of mankind, the best factor is the feeling of peace (Magdalen, 1380, p. 128). Linkage: One of the psychological needs of a person is the bonding with the people, in such a way that the person is distanced from isolation and seclusion, and communicates with the people. Pilgrimage causes socialization, dignity and love among humans. Socialization is a process by which humans, through their beliefs, tendencies, values, norms and habits are taken from culture. This process also allows a person to acquire a special character for himself. Through socialization, he learns the culture of a society (cultural transfer). Each person acquires knowledge, norms, beliefs and expectations of society in this way. Through the learning and internalization of culture, man succeeds in gaining identity for himself. In the light of the social evolution in the process of socialization, a person can be a human being, and as a result of this process, a person has his or her own identity -Mohseni, 1375 (p. 105) When believers are placed in holy places and communicate with their own God by reading the pilgrimage texts, they obtain some kind of satisfaction and spiritual peace. In the social dimension, pilgrimage strengthens religiosity, solidarity and social solidarity. By attending pilgrimage, pilgrimage, and pilgrimage, individuals, in a particular time and place, are in some way firm in their collective spirit and collective conscience in order to unite, coherently and mutually establish themselves and adhere to religious beliefs. Template: Another of the effects of pilgrimage on human behavior is that it saves him from confusion and lack of a specific plan, and introduces the appropriate patterns for having a decent life to mankind. One of the basic needs of a man to have a happy life is to always do his work on the basis of a suitable and desirable pattern and try to do nothing without taking that pattern. Human beings who have come to the highest human and scientific levels throughout human history have a clear pattern in their lives, and have set up their own life plans through that pattern.

In the life of scientists and heroes and purists, there is a never-ending supply of spiritual energies, Carl says. These men, like the mountains in the middle of the plain, have risen up and have shown us how far we can climb and how much the goal, which naturally tends to be human mind, is great! Only such men can provide their spiritual food for our inner life (Karl, 2008, p. 101). The pilgrim in the holy places is seeking the perfection of mankind that seeks to obtain it in the light of this spiritual relationship. Reducing Crime and Deviation: Social and religious institutions can play a supportive role by shaping collective behavior and organizing ceremonies and preventing many behavioral inappropriate behaviors. The social viewpoint in psychopathology discusses that mental and anxiety situations cannot be viewed as a health problem or a personality disorder, but rather the result of a person's inability to deal effectively with psychological stress. On the other hand, in this view, incompatible behavior is not considered to be a problem that exists only in one person, but at least as a failure of its supportive social apparatus, such as its associates and social institutions -Ahmadi, 1388 (p. 88) Various studies show that religion not only provides social support to individuals, but also serves as a factor for social inhibition. Gursatch suggests that those who are more religious are less likely to be addicted to drugs (John the Great, 1378, p. 145), since religion provides them with a framework for social support.

Participating in religious ceremonies reduces risky behaviors and impulsive behaviors, aggression, depression and spiritual conflicts. In contrast, in a group of people who do not attend religious ceremonies, fear, low self-esteem, anxiety, emotional instability, and low physical energy are seen to be high. This is due to the fact that by participating in religious ceremonies, the hope and feeling and dominance of the person's destiny are provided, and from this point of view, a person acquires a power that can withstand any difficulty that arises. Such beliefs have powerful psychological outcomes and can be relaxed for those who are aggressive and have criminal behavior and feel insecure. The cause of the criminal conduct is to disconnect from God and to move away from God and the infallible. In the light of the pursuit of sacred places, this distance is overcome; a person will try to avoid such acts and behavior if the error and crime committed by God's devotion and successes are violated.
