Recently, the scientists discovered new secrets about the brain's prefrontal cortex “the forelock”, let us read……….
Men who are
most prone to rage and violence have significant deficiencies in a brain
region that enables most people to learn moral sensibilities and
exercise self-restraint; researchers at the University of Southern
California have shown. Also, the neurologists have long been aware of a
strong link between damage to the prefrontal cortex and the acquisition
of antisocial, psychopathic-like personality changes.The study bolsters this link by taking people with lifelong antisocial tendencies and showing that they have prefrontal damage.
Scientists
say that the prefrontal cortex is the brain's foremost outer portion,
located right behind the eyes. Vital in the orchestration of emotion,
arousal and attention, it seems to house the mental machinery that
enables people to restrain themselves from acting on all of their
impulses.
According to
the study, the 21 men studied were all diagnosed with Antisocial
Personality Disorder (APD), which is characterized by irresponsibility,
deceitfulness, impulsiveness, irritability, lack of emotional depth,
lack of remorse, and life-long antisocial behavior. All of them had
psychopathic personalities and had committed serious, violent crimes.
The magnetic
resonance imaging shows activities in the forelock area in the brain,
studies show that forelock plays a vital role in human behavior
especially in Alcoholics and drug addicts
By using
brain-imaging techniques, the researchers measured tissue volume in the
prefrontal cortex of the 21men and they found that those men had an 11
to 14 percent reduction in the volume of nerve cells in the prefrontal
cortex compared to normal males -- a deficit of about two teaspoons'
worth.
The study
suggests some reasons why prefrontal deficits may cause antisocial
personality as the region appears to be critical for self-restraint and
deliberate foresight, some of these reasons is adultery, alcohol and
drugs.
This new
study is the first structural brain-imaging study of any antisocial
group and is significant because the subjects come from the general
community rather than prisons, and because the study was controlled for
some important factors, such as substance abuse and mental health
problems unrelated to APD that could have been directly associated with
the brain deficit.
My beloved, these scientific studies were held by non-Muslim scientists but their finding is identical with the Holy Qur’an!!!!
Allah
Almighty in the holy book of Qur’an confirm that alcohol and all
intoxicants that have the same effect(drugs) leads to the aggressive
behavior, He Almighty says: (Shaitan (Satan)
wants only to excite enmity and hatred between you with intoxicants
(alcoholic drinks) and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of
Allah and from As-Salat (the prayer). So, will you not then abstain?){Sûrat Al-Mâ’idah- The Table spread with Food-verse91}
Glory to
Allah Almighty, the Qur’an tells us that all intoxicants cause enmity
and aggression and recent scientists tell us the same!!!
Because these intoxicants affect function of the prefrontal cortex (forelock)
So the forelock is responsible for committing lies, faults and sins as Allah Almighty says :(A lying, sinful forelock!){Sûrat Al-‘Alaq- The Clot-verse16}.
