The study's results indicated a reduction in body weight throughout the three weight loss phases. The ABAB design was implemented for the cupping procedure, walking, and Quran memorization, as all were tailored to the situation of the obese patient. The conclusion is that thorough measures are essential, beginning with body weight, blood pressure, step count, and the quantity of Quranic verses remembered.
