Summary
Patients treated in hospital often experience an uncomfortable condition. This condition can lead to a decrease in performing salat as a Muslim prayer. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of individual coaching on the spirituality of Muslims including knowledge, attitude, and the practice of salat. Salat is a spiritual activity that is a form of worship of the Creator of the universe. It is about moving certain parts of the body while reciting Doa. Salat is an obligation for all Muslims in either a healthy or critical condition (Al-Obaidi, Wall, Mulekar, & Al-Mutairie, 2012); Mohamed, Nelson, Wood, & Moss, 2015 ;( Akgul & Karadag, 2016). This study revealed that 77.7% patients did not know how to perform salat during their medical treatment, while 47.6% of patients did not know how to purify themselves of impurities (Wudu) and 48.2% patients said that nobody was there to teach them how to perform salat and the required ritual purification (Aris, Rani, Jaafar, Norazmi, & Umar, 2017)
