Abstract
Dhikrullah, in the Koran mentioned as one of the main commands to Muslims, but the study of mentioning the name of Allah scientifically in order to find out what phenomena occur in humans when doing dhikrullah until now has not been maximized. This study is an academic response to the phenomenon of dhikrullah which has emerged frequently among Muslims lately. This study used qualitative data from 4 informants to find the dhikrullah model and quantitative data from 10 subjects were obtained through Electro Encephalo Graf to see the effects of dhikrullah on brain waves. The results show that there is a relationship between the scalp hygiane with brain waves. Special room dim light affect brain waves. Tense skin affects brain waves. Doing hyperventilation as in dhikrullah helps to detect disturbances in the brain. Closing eyes during dhikrullah produce alpha waves in the brain. Dhikrullah by moving the tongue can be recorded by using EEG. Therefore, the authors conclude that this study is a new approach to see the phenomenon of dhikrullah. The United Nations, especially WHO can use the phenomenon of dhikrullah as a new approach to help people who need a solution from a permanent spiritual approach.
