Recommendations for Exercising in Islam

Islam teaches its followers to maintain their health, both physically and spiritually. Both are crucial and mutually influence each other.

Recommendations for Exercising in Islam

Rasulullah saw said: "There are two blessings that are often overlooked by humans, namely the blessing of good health and free time or leisure. Throughout his life, besides preaching, he also took good care of his physical health. He always woke up for dawn prayer as the air at that time was good for breathing. Furthermore, he always maintained cleanliness, ate moderately, and he always walked. Especially in that era where there were no vehicles. It was through walking that he maintained his health. Because walking promotes better breathing and prevents stiffness in the muscles."

"The Virtues of Sports in Islam"

There are various virtues that friends of Dream can obtain by exercising. Here are some of the important virtues that you should know:

1. The Importance of Maintaining Health

Islam emphasizes the importance of maintaining good health. One way to achieve this is through exercise.
