Salvation grounded on faith, good deeds and servanthood of God are the aim of the creation of man. Prayer is the most important righteous act and the pillar of acts of worship. Performing prayer, in the sense that’’ prayer is performed by observing its conditions’’ has various effects on those who perform prayers, including the cognitive, ideological, devotional, spiritual, emotional, mental, moral, behavioral, biological, sanitary, social, cultural, economic and political aspects of their life. Therefore, performing prayer, whether individually or Jama’at(in a group), inside or outside of the organization has great effect on the ‘’ organizational life’’ and also the ‘’organizational behavior’’ of personals, an issue which researchers investigate under the headings of the social, cultural, economic, political and official effects of prayer.

The present paper focuses on the role of erecting prayer in organizational change. Using a descriptive-analytical method, this paper makes a theoretical study an Islamic teaching, to investigate the role of Erecting prayer in organizational change.
