Biologists have found recently that good smells such as that of flower activate the memory centers in the brain and help man has a stronger memory. They add that smelling a fragrant smell before sleeping helps strengthen what man has learned during the day. Other studies have also affirmed that fragrant smells help man attain psychological stability. We glorify Allah because Prophet Mohammad, PBUH, pointed out the significance of good smells; he said: “I was made to love women and fragrance of your world and the comfort of my eye* has been made in prayer.” narrated by al-Tabarani.

* This means that prayer was the dearest thing ever to Prophet Mohammad, pbuh, for through it he attained peace of mind and it helped him as well as believers forget their distresses.
