I found this article in the internet and its originally written in bahasa but i would like to share it with everyone (cuz some might not understand malay language..) and my English is not that good so i just use simple words.
"Maybe alotta muslims didn’t realise the hidden advantages of sujud. In fact, as muslims, we should know that every Allah’s creations have their own benefits, benefits that we would have never thought of.
There are two kinda sujud that we practise, the physical sujud (which is the one that we perform in our prayer) and the spiritual sujud (which is in the form of obeying Allah). Ulama says that we are closest to Allah when we are performing sujud and it is better to sujud longer.
Other advantages of sujud are to relieve our respiration and to restore the position of the organs in our body. Breathing during sujud can also :
- Adjust the position of the kidney
- Adjust the position of the uterus
- To relieve pain in hernia
- To reduce period pain
- To relieve lung expansion
- To relieve pain in appendix or spleen.
- The sujud position is the best position to rest and to balance the curvature of the vertebral column (back bone)
- To decrease the weight of the pelvis
- To make it easy to sleep
- To move the shoulder muscles, chest muscles, neck muscles, stomach muscles and the gluteus (buttocks) muscles during sujud and to wake up after sujud.
- The moving of the muscles makes the muscles stronger and more elastic and automatically it will ensure the smooth-flowing of the blood in our blood stream.
- For women, this helps the breast muscles to function better in breast feeding and to prevent breast pain.
- To decrease the body weight
- The movements of the muscles help women to give birth easily and to restore the position of the reproductive organs and to prevent convulsions.
- To prevent brain haemorrhage which is possible if it suddenly receives too much blood supply and also to prevent diseases of the vessels etc.
Psychologically, sujud makes us feel humble in front of Allah and therefore overcoming poor qualities such as arrogant, self-centred, egoistic, etc.
Medically, performing sujud for a longer time will increase the blood supply to the brain thus it could prevent headache and migraine, to ‘freshen up’ the brain and also to increase our ability to think and therefore increases ones mentality.
Jom sujud lama-lama~
