The Forelock and violence

[ltr]Recently, the scientists discovered new secrets about the brain's prefrontal cortex “the forelock”, let us read……….[/ltr] [ltr] [/ltr]

[ltr]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.

[ltr]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.
[/ltr]
[ltr]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.[/ltr]

[ltr]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 
[/ltr]
[ltr]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.[/ltr]
[ltr]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. [/ltr]
[ltr]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.

[ltr]My beloved, these scientific studies were held by non-Muslim scientists but their finding is identical with the Holy Qur’an!!!![/ltr]
[ltr]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} [/ltr]
[ltr]Glory to Allah Almighty, the Qur’an tells us that all intoxicants cause enmity and aggression and recent scientists tell us the same!!! 
[/ltr]
[ltr]Because these intoxicants affect function of the prefrontal cortex (forelock)[/ltr]
[ltr]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}.[/ltr]
