The aim of this study was to compare the effect of tahajud on blood pressure, pulse rate, and lung volume. Observational analytic study with cross-sectional design was conducted from June – October 2013, using direct measurement to compare calues of blood pressure, pulse rate, and lung volume (forced volume capacity – FVC and forced expiratory volume in 1 second) between tahajud and non-tahajud prayers.
