Sholat Sebagai Terapi Spritual: Studi Kasus Pada Penderita Stress dan Depresi

Abstract

Islam is the second largest religion in the world, which means that many
people in the world are Muslim. With the large number of Muslims
(followers of Islam), it is urgent for psychology or mental health
practitioners to provide services that are appropriate for Muslims. The
therapeutic approach as a psychological service for Muslims can be done
with a religious approach (psychoreligion) especially with their worship
practices. Prayer is one of the worship practices that can provide many
psychological benefits for Muslims who carry it out, including relieving
stress, increasing subjective well-being, interpersonal sensitivity and
others. So that prayer can be an alternative psychotherapy for Muslim
patients as a therapeutic process that helps improve their mental health.
This article aims to integrate religiosity and psychotherapy.
