Dear Friends , Assalam-u-Alaikum, one post-doctoral Scholar (Dr Mukaila Alade Rahman, from Lagos State University, Nigeria ) joined my lab to perform research on how Holy Quran Memorization affects our memory, between 2016 and 2017. We performed detailed experimentation by obtaining MRI scans of more than 60 Huffaz etc, at Armed Forces Institute of Radiology (AFIRI), Military Hospital, Rawalpindi , thanks to Lieutenant General (Retd) Imran Majeed (VC, NUMS) and Major General Shamrez Khan (Commandant AFIRI). The funding for this project was obtained from TWAS (The World Academy of Sciences, Italy). The results were analyzed jointly with experts from University of Edinburgh, UK. The results show that memorizing Holy Quran makes our brains 'healthier' and less vulnerable to many memory related diseases!! I am glad that the results have now been published in a European Neurosciences journal (paper attached). This is a unique research, never performed any where in the world using MRI scans(to the best of our knowledge) , analyzing the structural information in the human brain with MRI! I am grateful to the whole of my research group who had been pivotal in this research study (www.miprg.com) ! It was a great Teamwork to convince volunteers for MR exams, transporting them to AFIRI and many other 'logistics', its never so easy at COMSATS!! I invite you to go through the paper, you will enjoy it Insha Allah. Also please share this very special research with your friends! Jazak Allah
Rasoolullah (ﷺ) wore shoes like sandals or slippers. Rasoolullah (ﷺ) also wore black leather socks and during Wadhu passed his moist hanks over them (made Masah).
