Prostration helps the body discharge harmful electromagnetic waves. A non-Muslim scientist discovered that putting one's forehead on the ground allows the body to ground out positive electromagnetic charges, similar to how buildings are grounded to discharge electrical signals like from lightning. Placing the forehead directly on the ground or on sand allows for the most effective grounding near the center of the Earth. Scientific evidence shows Mecca is located at the center of the Earth, making prostration during prayer an ideal way to discharge electromagnetic waves while also coming closer to God, who created such beneficial acts. Muslims prostrate to obey God, trusting there is wisdom in His commands, though scientific reasons can help demonstrate benefits to what Muslims practice.
