“…3 For Muslim patients, praying can promote health, speed up recovery, improve coping mechanism and pain tolerance. 3,5 A number of Muslim patients did not pray while being hospitalized for various medical problems mainly due to physical limitation. 1 What they failed to understand is that in Islam, prayer postures and movements can be modified to accommodate disease and disabilities.…”

“…The preparation for prayer and physical motions during prayer can be a limitation for hospitalized Muslim patients. 1,5 However, illness does not alleviate the obligation to perform solat. Many Muslim patients neglected solat while being hospitalized as they are not aware of the convenience (rukhsoh) allowed for them in performing their prayer during hardships and illnesses.…”

Introduction: Solat or prayer, as one of the five pillars of Islam, is associated with bio-psycho-social benefits in Muslim patients. Many Muslim patients neglected solat while being hospitalized as they are unaware of the convenience (rukhsoh) available for them. Ibadah Friendly Hospital Courses have been conducted in different states of Malaysia to impart knowledge to the hospital staff who can in turn educate their patients. This study aims to construct a content-validated assessment tool to assess the effectiveness of a state-level Hospital Mesra Ibadah course. Materials and methods:A self-administered questionnaire was constructed and content-validated by a panel of three experts (two religious teachers and one consultant spine surgeon). All 15 questions achieved item-level content validity index (I-CVI) of 1.00 after two rounds of validation. The questionnaires were distributed to participants of a state-level Hospital Mesra Ibadah course to compare the participants' pre-course and post-course test scores.Results: A total of 88 participants (48.9%) were included in this study. There was a significant difference in the pre-course test mean score and post-course test mean score among the participants. There was also a significant reduction of unsure answers after the course. There was no significant association found between the gender, place of work and occupation with the pre-post test score difference. Conclusion:This study demonstrates that the Hospital Mesra Ibadah course is effective in imparting as well as consolidating the knowledge among participants, hence it should be routinely organized to benefit more participants.

Manevi iyi oluş; belirli bir dine, manevi uygulamaya veya ideolojiye değil; insanın anlam, amaç ve kendisinden daha büyük bir şeyle bağlantı kurma ihtiyacına atıfta bulunan bir kavramdır. Üniversite öğrencileri üzerinde yapılan çalışmalarda daha çok öğrencilerin psikolojik sağlamlıkları, yaşam doyumları, psikolojik esneklik ve iyi oluşları ile akademik başarıları incelenmektedir. Üniversite öğrencilerinin manevi iyi oluşları ile psikolojik esneklikleri arasındaki ilişkiyi inceleyen çok az çalışma bulunmaktadır. Dolayısıyla bu araştırmanın amacı; sosyal hizmet, ilahiyat, rehberlik ve psikolojik danışmanlık programlarında öğrenim gören üniversite öğrencilerinin manevi iyi oluşlarının açıklanmasında psikolojik esneklik ve çeşitli demografik değişkenlerin rolünün incelenmesidir. Araştırma nicel araştırma yöntemine dayalı olarak ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini bir devlet üniversitesinin sosyal hizmet, ilahiyat, rehberlik ve psikolojik danışmanlık lisans programlarında öğrenim gören ve tesadüfi olarak belirlenen 382 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Manevi İyi Oluş Ölçeği, Psikolojik Esneklik Ölçeği ve Kişisel Bilgi Formu kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler ANOVA testi, t-testi ve çoklu regresyon analizi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda; katılımcıların manevi iyi oluş düzeyleri ile psikolojik esneklik düzeyleri arasında düşük düzeyde, olumlu yönde ve anlamlı bir ilişkinin olduğu belirlenmiştir. Cinsiyet, sınıf düzeyi ve ailesinin ekonomik durumu farklı olan gruplar arasında manevi iyi oluş açısından anlamlı farklılık yokken; katılımcıların yaşı, bölümü, akademik ortalaması, ailenin yerleşim yeri, dini inancı uygulama sıklığı, din ve maneviyat durumu ve yaşamda önceliği gibi değişkenlerle manevi iyi oluş düzeyi arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur. Bu bulgular, manevi iyi oluşun bazı önemli belirleyicilerinin daha iyi anlaşılmasına katkıda bulunabilir. Araştırma bulguları, üniversite öğrencilerinin sağlıklı bir yaşam tarzı ve psikososyal gelişimlerini sürdürmelerinde manevi iyi oluşun önemli bir belirleyici olduğunu doğrulamaktadır.
