The effect of Islamic lifestyle in the prevention of crime and social harm (with emphasis on the role of prayer)

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Islamic lifestyle on crime prevention and social harm with emphasis on the role of prayer. This research is qualitative and philosophical analysis. The method of data collection is documentary study and search for scientific information from written and digital sources. Research shows that prayer as one of the dimensions of Islamic lifestyle has a very important role in crime prevention. The reason is that the Islamic way of life, especially prayer, causes man to remember God. Since man prays 5 times a day, he always remembers God in his heart, and that is enough to prevent him from making a mistake and committing a crime. Of course, in order to do this, we must first institutionalize the Islamic way of life in society and turn it into a culture.
