<![CDATA[The concept of wellness in contemporary psychology is largely grounded in a secular-Western paradigm emphasizing physical, psychological, and social dimensions, while spirituality is often treated as a supporting variable rather than the core of well-being (Ryff, 1989; Seligman & Csikszentmihalyi, 2000). For Muslims, spirituality fundamentally shapes views of the self, life, and happiness (Haque, 2004). This article examines wellness in Islamic psychology, identifies its key dimensions, and analyzes its relevance to contemporary well-being models. A descriptive-analytical qualitative approach was employed through library research on primary sources—the Qur'an and Hadith—and relevant scholarly articles, analyzed using thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006). Findings indicate that Islamic wellness is multidimensional, encompassing jasadiyah (physical), nafsiyah-aqliyah (psychological-cognitive), qalbiyah (emotional-heart), ruhaniyah (spiritual-transcendent), and ijtima'iyah (social) dimensions, converging toward sakinah through tazkiyatun nafs and practices such as dhikr, sabr, shukr, and tawakal. These findings align with evidence linking religiosity and subjective well-being among Muslims (Abdel-Khalek, 2022). Islamic wellness therefore offers an integrative framework enriching Ryff's psychological well-being and PERMA by positioning the human-God relationship at its core.]]>
