Discrimination and Religious Experiences of Adult Muslimahs in Salaat

While Muslims perform mandatory salaat (prayer) 5 times daily, the Duha salaat is an optional daily prayer consisting of 4 cycles of standing, bowing, standing again, prostrating, kneeling, and prostrating again. Research has shown that salaat may influence physiological relaxation.

Participants will count while mimicking the movements of the Duhaa salaat. This is a no-prayer condition in which the recitation of Qur'an is omitted for the sake of comparison.
