About a third of human life is spent sleeping. One of the main elements of life is sleep. Just as humans need food to survive, they also need sleep. Sleeping properly has some rules, the observance of which increases the quality of your sleep.
Sleep plays an important role in life and our physical and mental health depends to a large extent on good and sufficient sleep.
In verse 32 of Romans, God Almighty "considered sleep as one of their own verses."
In the world of industry and technology today, where humans are moving with great speed, sleep as a life-giving element has been forgotten, so that the damage caused by sleep disorders is increasing.
Sleep is a topic that is mentioned in our holy book Quran about its importance and manners. The best type of sleep is to lie down on your right shoulder first, then sleep on your left shoulder, and when you want to wake up, lie down on your right shoulder for a while. It means that the beginning and end of our sleep should be on the right side. Sleeping on the stomach. This is an ominous dream and is very forbidden. It is said in a tradition that if you ever see someone sleeping on his stomach, wake him up because this is an evil dream.
Recommendations about sleep from the point of view of Islam:
- Eating a light dinner before going to bed
- Moderation in eating
- Taking refuge in the Qur'an and ordered zikrs
- Compliance with bedtime
- When sleeping, the feet should face the Qiblah.
- Put your hand under your cheek
Many people like to sleep on their stomach because they feel comfortable, but they don't know the dangerous consequences. The Shashe News website reported that scientific studies have proven that sleeping on the stomach is very dangerous and it is better for people to sleep on the right side. One of the most important risks of sleeping on your stomach is the formation of kidney stones.
Sleeping on the right and left prevents the formation of kidney stones; But sleeping on the stomach causes the body to remain motionless and stone deposits in the kidney. Also, by sleeping on the stomach, the abdominal muscles gradually weaken, the back becomes hunched, the neck gets damaged, and the person feels convulsions and contractions.
It is also recommended to take a mid-day nap, or a short mid-day nap. From the doctor's point of view, it is useful for the rejuvenation and health of the mind and spirit and strengthens memory. The duration of this sleep is between twenty minutes and half an hour. This sleep seems more necessary for hot areas. The afternoon nap should not be longer than 20 minutes so that the person does not enter the deep sleep stage, because in this case it will be more difficult to wake up and resume daily activities and work.
It should be said that about 85% of sleep should be at night and only 15% during the day; Because daytime sleep can never have the quality of night sleep.
Sleep is important for the health and regeneration of the nervous system, the immune system and the musculoskeletal system of humans and animals. Sleep is a state that is opposite to wakefulness (coordination of volitional ability and awareness of this ability).
