Method: For this purpose, a sample of 232 women was analyzed by using multiple linear regression analysis. Results: The results indicate that regular prayer has a higher level of positive impact on breastfeeding self-efficacy, that it is a stronger predictor in comparison with psychological resilience, and that this effect is pronounced among Muslim mothers. Conclusion: These insights could inform interventions aimed at improving breastfeeding practices by incorporating spiritual dimensions alongside psychological support.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBreastfeedingMotherPrayerPsychological ResilienceArticle9521241273145Q194520WOS:001620130000001
