This study examines the concept of inner peace in the Qur’anic perspective, focusing on Surah Ar-Ra’d verse 28 and its relevance to self-healing and mental health awareness in the modern era. This research employs a qualitative method using a library research approach by analyzing Qur’anic exegesis (tafsir), academic journals, books, and both Islamic and contemporary psychological literature. The findings indicate that ṭuma’ninah (tranquility of the heart) in Surah Ar-Ra’d verse 28 represents a psychospiritual state achieved through the remembrance of Allah (dhikr). Dhikr functions not only as a ritual act of worship but also as an emotional regulation mechanism that reduces stress, anxiety, and other psychological disturbances. From the maqasidic interpretation perspective, this concept aligns with the objectives of preserving life (hifz al-nafs) and intellect (hifz al-‘aql). Furthermore, the study reveals a strong correlation between Qur’anic inner peace and modern psychological theories such as emotion regulation, mindfulness, and subjective well-being. Therefore, Surah Ar-Ra’d verse 28 offers a holistic spiritual-based self-healing approach that remains highly relevant in addressing contemporary mental health challenges.
