<![CDATA[This study examines the Majelis Burdah at STMIK Banjarbaru, which involves the academic community and the general public, to understand its impact on the mental health of the congregation. Using a qualitative method through observation and interviews, this phenomenon is analyzed using Hamka’s concept of “Mental Health” in Modern Sufism. The results indicate that the routine recitation of the Burdah functions as a systematic process of soul purification (tazkiyat al-nafs). This practice is empirically proven to neutralize psychological deviations such as stress (huzn) and anger (ghadab), as well as foster an attitude of rational submission (qana’ah and tawakal). Furthermore, the inclusive and egalitarian nature of the gathering is able to dissolve social hierarchy barriers, transforming individual inner peace into social piety. In conclusion, Sufistic values remain highly relevant to be applied in public spaces and modern institutions, where the integration of spiritual depth and social rationality becomes the key to realizing perfect mental health.]]>
