The cerebral cortex contains huge numbers of neurons. Activity of these neurons is to some extent synchronized in regular firing rhythms ('brain waves'). Many researchers have investigated the effect of various events to the EEG signals such as meditation and classical music. EEG signals from subjects at rest, as well as in different cognitive states; listening to Quran recitation and listening to low and hard music are measured and analyzed. Statistical analysis using graph pad prism software was performed in order to test the validity of obtained data. The analysis results from this study show that listening to Quran recitation can generate alpha wave and can help a person to be in a relax condition as compared with resting and listening to slow and hard rock music.
Key words: EEG, Quran Recitation, Slow and Hard Music, Alpha Wave
