The concept of forgiveness holds significant importance in Islam, emphasizing values of mercy and patience in responding to others' wrongdoings. From various Islamic perspectives, forgiveness is identified as a spiritual process that involves self-awareness and self-development to release feelings of resentment, anger, or hatred, thereby fostering inner peace. Psychologically, the act of forgiving can alleviate negative emotions and promote inner calm, which contributes positively to an individual's mental health. Thus, understanding and practicing forgiveness in daily life can be an effective means of maintaining mental well-being.
