<![CDATA[The mental health of Generation Z adolescents is under serious pressure due to technological developments, value disruption from globalization, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This phenomenon is marked by increasing symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression, which are often not addressed holistically. This article explores the potential of Islamic theology as an integrative approach to healing the mental health of Gen Z adolescents.
