II. Literature Review

• Review of relevant literature on prayer in Islam, personal growth, and success
• Theoretical framework: Islamic perspective on personal growth and success
• Gaps in the literature and research questions: What is the relationship between prayer and success for Muslims? What are the mechanisms that explain this relationship? What are the implications for personal growth?

III. Methodology

• Research design and approach: Correlational study
• Sampling strategy and selection criteria: Muslim participants from diverse backgrounds and contexts
