The phrase Walking is mans best medicine, allegedly spoken by Hippocrates two millennia ago, is even more timely today. This fact is particularly true in industrialized societies where new technologies have not only changed the way we work but, even more profoundly, have also affected our life styles by reducing the physical effort of most of our daily activities (with the exception of sports). We can use walking, not just for the utilitarian purpose of transport, but rather for pleasure and improved health by incorporating it into our daily routine. One cannot overrate the many benefits of walking since there is strong scientific evidence to support them. I dont run nor do i exercise nowadays, i just walk... and its therapeutic and meditation in motion...even as believers of God it has been proven that the prophet indeed did meditate at the Cave of Hira at a mountain named Jabal al-Nour in the Hejaz region of present day Saudi Arabia. So no harm in meditation after all a cleaner mind makes us a cleaner human being and God only resides in those that is clean for filth is not his thing. After all Allah deserves nothing but the best for he is nothing but the best.
