Varieties of religions including Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam have used prayer beads for thousands of years. Believers use prayer beads to help them focus on their prayers or mantras. Fingering the beads keeps one in focus during the time mind begins to drift towards the concerns of everyday life. Keeping track of the number of recited prayers is another useful aspect of the prayer beads just like in Christianity reciting the Hail Mary using a rosary or in Buddhism where the mala helps one to focus as well as count the repetitions when reciting mantras such as the Om Mani Padme Hum (Sanskrit) or Om Mani Peme Hung (Tibetan).
Depending on the religion they are being used prayer beads come with different names. Buddhist prayer beads are named malas, Christian prayer beads are called rosaries and Hindu prayer beads are known as japa mala. In the Islamic religion, prayer beads are called Misbaha, Tasbih or Sibha.
During the early times Islamic prayer beads were made out of stone in the Middle East. Later in the Ottoman times rock crystal beads with silver tassel attached to the end were favored. Nowadays “tasbih” comes in with different materials and stones some made of wood or plastic where as some made of various gemstones, olive seeds and amber as well as pearls. Rosewood, ebony and olive tree are the main materials used to make wooden “tasbih”. If made out of fragrant wood closed boxed are a must to store the “tesbih” to maintain its fragrance. A more accepted piece of status symbol of today’s tesbih is made out of gemstones and all kinds of beads.
Prayers beads differ in number depending on the religion they are being used for. Buddhists use malas with 111 beads where 100 of them are used for recites and 11 for the possible errors during recitation. Tibetan malas contain 108 beads on which 100 mantras are recited and 8 are dedicated to the liberation of all sentient beings. Only 27 beads are used by the Devotees of Pure Land Buddhism. The Hindu japa malas are comprised of 108 beads or any number which can be divided by the number 9. Christian rosaries come with 59 beads; 53 to recite the Hail Mary prayer and 6 to recite the Our Father prayer. Islamic prayer beads are made of 99 beads that are counted when reciting the 99 names for Allah. Tesbihs with 33 beads are also used by the Muslims which are cycled through 3 times to make up 99 prayers.
