Healing with sound: Exploring possible applications of Qur’anic recitation in human cells
Tissue engineering offers an alternative method to facilitate for in vitro cell-based regeneration of tissues/organs for in vivo implantation. Sound therapy has long been used in dealing with various health problems. Known to have certain effects on emotional reactions in the humans, the number of...

| description |
Tissue engineering offers an alternative method to facilitate for in vitro cell-based regeneration of
tissues/organs for in vivo implantation. Sound therapy has long been used in dealing with various health
problems. Known to have certain effects on emotional reactions in the humans, the number of research done
in relation to sound healing has grown consistently. It is believed that not only the brain or the auditory cells
react to the sound, other cells of the human body also responded well to it. Perhaps, sound healing can also be
used to address degenerative diseases in the humans. Degenerative diseases result from a continuous process
based on degenerative cell changes, affecting tissues/organs, which will deteriorate over time. The changes
may be due to physiological bodily wear or unfavourable lifestyle habits. In the Islamic tradition, the use of
Qur’anic verses recitation for therapeutic purposes can be traced back to the times of Prophet Muhammad
(صلى الله عليه وسلم .(Listening to the Qur’anic recitation is known to have therapeutic effects even on individuals who do
not understand the meaning of the verses. Possibly, the melodious Qur’anic recitation could also function as
sound therapy. However, there has been lack of literature suggesting systematic studies on the effect of
Qur’anic verses recitation on human cells and their behavioral changes in vitro. Similar to the use of sound
healing, Qur’anic recitation is also expected to have positive effect on the human body. As one of the healing
mediums, Qur’anic recitation is hoped to have a more favourable effect than the conventional sound therapy.
This paper aims to identify and briefly review any previous researches relevant to sound healing on human
cells. It is hoped that this study could shed some light on the potential use of the Qur’anic recitation to
facilitate for in vitro cell-based regeneration in tissue engineering studies.
