REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Prayer is the second pillar of Islam after the sentence of two martyrs. However, from the point of view of amaliyah worship, prayer is the first pillar of Islam, followed by zakat, fasting and Hajj. Prayer is the separator between believers and non-believers.

Performing prayers on time in the mosque is a form of Muslim faith. Including getting up in the morning to perform the morning prayer of worshipers in the mosque. But the problem is that often a person falls asleep until he leaves the dawn prayer.

In fact, behind the dawn prayer there is efficacy and virtue. Allah bestows great precedence on the morning prayer among other prayers.

God lavishes a greater reward on the morning prayer than in other prayers. This is because it takes a stronger determination to be able to wake up from its deep sleep, especially when the sky is still dark.

In addition, it is true that the prayer of Sub-day worshipers in the mosque turns out to have great benefits for this soul and body. Timely dawn prayers will raise spirits, relax the soul, and keep a person away from difficulties, anxiety and laziness.

1.To be More motivated

The Prophet Muhammad SAW said regarding this matter, as in the hadith narrated from Abu Hurairah RA, as follows:

[يَعْقِدُ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَى قَافِيَةِ رَأْسِ أَحَدِكُمْ إِذَا هُوَ نَامَ ثَلاَثَ عُقَدٍ، يَضْرِبُ كُلَّ عُقْدَةٍ مَكَانَهَا: عَلَيْكَ لَيْلٌ طَوِيلٌ فَارْقُدْ، فَإِنِ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَذَكَرَ اللَّهَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، فَإِنْ تَوَضَّأَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، فَإِنْ صَلَّى انْحَلَّتْ عُقَدُهُ كُلُّهَا، فَأَصْبَحَ نَشِيطًا طَيِّبَ النَّفْسِ، وَإِلَّا أَصْبَحَ خَبِيثَ النَّفْسِ كَسْلاَنَ](متفق عليه).

"Satan ties the nape of one of you while he sleeps with three ties. Satan ties them in such a way that each tie is placed in its place and then (it is said) 'You will have a very long night so sleep well.' If he wakes up and remembers Allah, then remove one rope. If he then performs ablution, then remove the other rope. And when he performs prayer, remove all the ropes. And in the morning, he will feel enthusiasm and freshness that calms the soul. But if If he doesn't do that, then in the morning his soul won't feel fresh and he will be lazy about activities." (narrated by Bukhari and Muslim)

2. Strengthens the body and intelligence

Carrying out morning prayers on time will make a person gain brilliant thinking power and strength in his body muscles. Because as is known, the highest percentage of ozone gas is found in the atmosphere at dawn. This gas has a good beneficial effect on the nervous system and increases the strength of one's thinking and body.

3. Prevent various diseases

Waking up early means cutting down on long hours of sleep. Meanwhile, someone who sleeps for long periods of time will be susceptible to various diseases, one of which is heart disease.

4. Healthy skin

Waking up early to perform the morning prayer also turns out to be healthy for the skin. Why is that? The effect of the red color at sunrise is known to have great benefits for the nerves, not to mention the presence of ultraviolet light which functions to produce vitamin D in the skin.

5. Supply Energy to the Body

Carrying out the morning prayer on time will also supply the energy needed by the body. Cortisone is one of those magical substances that provides the body with the energy it needs. The highest levels of cortisone in the blood occur in the morning.
