The first chapter is on Meditation in man-made religions، with three topics: the first is the definition، the second is its aims; the third is its domains and manifestations, The second chapter is on distorted religions; it includes two topics: the first is Meditation in Judaism and the second is Meditation in Christianity. Definitions as well as aims and domains of meditation are given in both topics. The third chapter is on the Worship of thinking in Islam; it includes three topics: the first topic is the definition of thought and its evidence، the second is its aims، and the third is its domains، followed by the conclusion and the list of references. The most prominent findings of the research are: the place of reflection in Islam. Reflection has no definite body or way; remembrance is one of its fruits، its purpose is realization of the mind، the way it can perceive. This differentiates it from inner meditation in other religions as it means to completely restrain the mind and abolish it. Meditation in religions other than Islam means: salvation، unity، and enlightenment، and it has its own forms and fields.
