Abstract

The Muslim’s belief in the fulfillment of prayers that were offered in the holy land, the temple, and the great Mosque of the Prophet Muhammad became one of the factors that motivates Muslims to carry out the pilgrimage. This study aims to show the realization of the power of prayer for Muslims after the hajj. This qualitative study interviewed two pilgrims in 2018 who were motivated to perform the pilgrimage in addition to worship and also to fulfill their life expectation. Secondary data was used to complete the information needed in this study. The results showed that there were two realizations of prayer that were carried out during the hajj, firstly, the direct prayer which was answered quickly as desired and secondly, the unanswered prayers that characterized by uncertainty in what time the prayer will be answered by God. Although there were differences in the realization of prayer, but there were similarities in terms of faith, devotion, and sincerity that is improved after the pilgrimage. Quality of life is a positive impact after Hajj.
