Hypertension is a major public health problem. There are two ways to
treat high blood pressure: drug therapy and non-drug therapy.
Treatment includes the use of antihypertensive drugs that have been
shown to lower blood pressure. Meanwhile, non-drug treatments for
high blood pressure include Murotal Al-Quran. The aim of this study
was to analyze the effect of mulottal therapy verses 1 to 97 of Surah
Asi-Shuara Al-Quran on the blood pressure of hypertensive patients
in Poshandu in the Banyuanyar Community Health Center area. The
research design used was a one group pre-post test design using a
simple random sampling technique. The intervention took the form of
offering Mulottar Al-Quran Surah Asi Shuara verses 1 to 97 for 15
minutes for three consecutive days. The total sample consisted of 41
hypertensive patients. The results of the Wilcoxon sign-rank test
between pre and post test blood pressure in the Banyuan Yar
Community Health Center work area showed = 0.002 and the
comparative significance value = 0.05. Statistics = 0.002 < 0.05. The
trial results showed that Murotar Al-Quran Surah As Shuara Therapy
was effective on the blood pressure of elderly hypertensive patients in
