Pregnants who came for birth were taught the Surah Maryam. They were monitored throughout the labor process, and in addition to routine midwifery care, the Surah Maryam was recited twice during labor to provide spiritual support.

By monitoring the labor throughout the process, in addition to routine midwifery care, the pregnant was provided with moral support by placing the Virgin Mary's Hand plant in water and watching the plant unfold, guiding her to the idea that the birth canal would also open in the same way.

Routine midwifery care was provided at birth

Pregnant women who came for birth were taught Surah Maryam. They were monitored throughout the labor process, and in addition to routine midwifery care, Surah Maryam was played twice during labor to provide spiritual support.

VAS is used to measure perceived pain. It consists of a 10 cm (100 mm) line with one end labeled "no pain" and the other "worst possible pain." The participant marks a point on the line corresponding to the intensity of their pain. The distance in millimeters from "no pain" to the mark is measured and recorded as the pain score. Cline et al. (1992) reported that vertical orientation was better understood by patients. The scale was originally developed by Price et al. (1983). Eti-Aslan (1998) found that VAS was more sensitive in the evaluation of postoperative (acute) pain

Developed by Redshaw, Martin, Rowe, and Hockley (2009) to assess women's worries related to the childbirth process. The Turkish validity and reliability study was conducted by Erkal and Özentürk (2016). The scale consists of 10 items rated on a 4-point Likert scale: (1) Very worried, (2) Fairly worried, (3) Not very worried, (4) Not at all worried. Scores are calculated from the total (minimum = 10, maximum = 40). The scale has three subdimensions: Pain and Distress, Uncertainty Before Birth, and Interventions. The Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of the Turkish version was found to be 0.83 (Erkal Aksoy & Özentürk, 2016). In this study, the Cronbach's alpha value of the questionnaire was found to be 0.75.

The original Birth Satisfaction Scale was developed by Martin and Fleming (2011) to assess women's satisfaction with childbirth. In 2013, Martin and Martin revised the scale by reducing the number of items, resulting in the Birth Satisfaction Scale-Revised (BSS-R). The BSS-R is a 10-item Likert-type scale rated as: Strongly agree (4 points), Agree (3 points), Neutral (2 points), Disagree (1 point), Strongly disagree (0 points). Items 2, 4, 7, and 8 are reverse-scored. The total score ranges from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction. The scale has three subdimensions: Quality of Care (communication, support from healthcare providers, and cleanliness of the delivery room), Women's Personal Attributes (sense of control and anxiety during childbirth), and Stress Experienced During Labor (perceived stress and duration of labor). The Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of the Turkish version was reported as 0.72 (Gökmen, 2017). In this study, the Cronbach's alpha
