The development of heart disease, followed by the pacemaker implantation, has reduced the quality and psychological problems for patients. Thus, the present study was conducted to determine the effect of prayer on the quality of life and the psychological status of patients with permanent pacemaker. This is a quasi-experimental study in which 75 patients were assigned to experimental and control groups. Religious intervention was conducted for the experimental group, including the Tavasol prayer and four recommended (mustahab) remembrances in 7 sessions. Before and after the intervention, the patients were provided with the quality of life questionnaire and psychological status. Then, the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive and analytical tests. Before intervention, there was no difference between quality of life status and psychological status of patients, but after intervention, their quality of life increased and their psychological status improved significantly. The implementation of religious intervention based on prayer positively affects the quality of life and psychological status of patients; thus, implementing this intervention is necessary for patients.
心脏病的发展，随后是起搏器的植入，降低了患者的生活质量和心理问题。因此，本研究旨在确定祈祷对永久性起搏器患者生活质量和心理状态的影响。这是一项准实验研究，其中 75 名患者被分配到实验组和对照组。对实验组进行宗教干预，包括 7 次塔瓦索尔祈祷和 4 次推荐（mustahab）的回忆。在干预前后，为患者提供生活质量问卷和心理状态。然后，使用描述性和分析性测试分析问卷。干预前，患者的生活质量状况和心理状态没有差异，但干预后，他们的生活质量提高，心理状态明显改善。基于祈祷的宗教干预的实施对患者的生活质量和心理状态有积极影响；因此，对患者实施这种干预是必要的。
