HEARTS FIND PEACE IN THE REMEMBRANCE OF
ALLAH
According to research by David B. Larson, of
the American National Health Research Center,
and his team, comparisons of devout and
non-religious Americans have given very
surprising results. For instance, religious
people suffer 60% less heart disease than
those with little or no religious belief, the
suicide rate among them is 100% lower, they
suffer far lower levels of high blood pressure,
and this ratio is 7:1 among smokers.65
It was reported in one study published in the
International Journal of Psychiatry in
Medicine, an important scientific source in the
world of medicine, that people who describe
themselves as having no religious beliefs
become ill more frequently and have shorter
life spans. According to the results of the
research, those with no beliefs are twice as
likely to suffer stomach-intestine diseases
than believers, and their mortality rate from
respiratory diseases is 66% times higher than
that of believers.
Secular psychologists tend to refer to similar
figures as "psychological effects." This means
that belief raises peoples' spirits, and this
contributes to health. This explanation may
indeed be reasonable, but a more striking
conclusion emerges when the subject is
examined. Belief in Allah is much stronger
than any other psychological influence. The
wide-ranging research into the connection
between religious belief and physical health
carried out by Dr. Herbert Benson of the
Harvard Medical Faculty has produced
surprising conclusions in this area. Despite
not being a believer himself, Dr. Benson has
concluded that worship and belief in Allah
have a more positive effect on human health
than that observed in anything else. Benson
states that he has concluded that no belief
provides as much mental peace as belief in
Allah.66
What is the reason for this connection
between belief and the human soul and
body? The conclusion reached by the secular
researcher Benson is, in his own words, that
the human body and mind are regulated to
believe in Allah.67
This fact, which the world of medicine has
slowly begun to appreciate, is a secret
revealed in the Qur'an in these words: "… Only
in the remembrance of Allah can the heart
find peace." (Qur'an, 13:28) The reason why
those who believe in Allah, who pray to and
trust in Him, are psychologically and physically
healthier is that they behave in accordance
with the purpose of their creation.
Philosophies and systems which contradict
human creation always lead to pain and
unhappiness.
Modern medicine is now tending towards the
realization of this truth. As Patrick Glynn put it:
"[S]cientific research in psychology over the
past twenty-five years has demonstrated that,
… religious belief is one of the most
consistent correlates of overall mental health
and happiness.
