<![CDATA[The remembrance (dzikr) is believed to have a therapeutic effect on human’s psychiatric condition. In the Islamic tradition, Sufi scholars have long used it as the therapy for increasing their students’ quality of the soul. The immaterial part of human being is believed to be the source of human behaviours, which means their quality of behaviour depends on that of their spiritual condition. In the perspective of modern psychology, the talk of human’s behavioural quality is closely related to the concept of emotional intelligence. It can be assumed therefore that the dzikr therapy can have positive affects on the emotional intelligence. This study seeks to prove the assumption. Located in Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan, it is conducted to the students of Pondok Dzikir Miftahus Sudur and takes the Tarekat Qadiriyah Naqsyabandiyah’s ways of dzikr as the method of theraphy. The theraphy is given intensively for four weeks and the result proves that it can significantly increase their emotional intelligence.]]>
