Abstract

This research elaborates on the influence of the Al-Fatihah letter as a spiritual therapy method for dealing with stress based on a literature review. Surah Al-Fatihah, which consists of seven verses, has content that is believed to be able to provide calm and peace for its readers. This study explored how the elements in Surah Al-Fatihah can function as medicine for stress from a psychological and spiritual perspective. Literature analysis shows that Surah Al-Fatihah has several key elements that have the potential to reduce stress: praise to Allah, the Most Gracious and Most Merciful, acknowledgment of Allah's power, and a request for help and guidance. This reesults showed that praise and recognition helps reduce anxiety and provides a sense of security, while asking for help creates feelings of support and guidance in facing life's challenges. Anxiety reduction can be achieved through repeated reading of Surah Al-Fatihah which has a meditative effect, as well as through confidence and faith which provides a sense of calm and security. Social support from religious practices in the community also plays an important role in stress management. In conclusion, Surah Al-Fatihah has great potential as an effective spiritual therapy method for reducing stress. These findings indicate the need for further research through empirical.
