Increases the height of the SalatBuddy Stool
Allows stacking of 5 SalatBuddy units
Designed by an American physician in collaboration with Teams Design, a world renowned design and engineering firm, the SalatBuddy was developed using cutting edge technology. In consultation with orthopedic surgeons and physical therapists, the goal of the SalatBuddy is to reduce pressure on the lower back, knees and ankles, easing pain one may feel in sujud (prostration). Using these muscles, ligaments and joints in salat (prayer) can strengthen them, enhancing flexibility, adding to one's overall health and well being. Intended for both men and women with the strength, flexibility and coordination to perform sujud (prostration), SalatBuddy can support up to 300 pounds.
I have tried the SalatBuddy personally, and was very impressed with how such a seemingly simple product can lead to a significant decrease in the stress on the muscles, joints and bones. Using SalatBuddy lowers the risk of re-injury, and allows for faster healing of injured muscles, bones, or joints.
Performing Sujood is an integral part of our salat and incumbent on all those who are physically capable. With SalatBuddy, insha’Allah, more people will be able to perform their salat closer to the tradition of our Prophet (PBUH). May Allah (SWT) make this project successful in bringing this option to every Masjid around the world, and accept the efforts of all those who strive to perfect their Salat. Jazakumullah
Salat Buddy is a great idea, masha’Allah. When I see people sitting on chairs at the masjid, they are not getting the full benefit, the khushu, the softness of the heart that comes from sujud. For many people, Salat Buddy will allow them that benefit. I encourage people to sponsor them for masajid to make them available to those in need.
