Abstract

Stress is prevalent these days, and mental health issues are getting worse. This underscores how much we need long-term solutions. Traditional psychological and materialistic approaches can help with symptoms, but they don't get at the base of the problems that cause long-term misery, which are often spiritual and existential in origin. This study says explores that the Holy Quran is more than simply a religious book; it is also a timeless and all-encompassing guidance for dealing with stress and attaining lasting inner peace. The goal of this study is to show how the Quranic principles of tawakkul (reliance on Allah), sabr (patience and perseverance), dhikr (remembrance of Allah), shukr (gratitude), and taqwa (God-consciousness) can be used to make a complete plan for developing mental strength, emotional balance, and deep spiritual peace. The Quranic concept meets the needs of modern well-being in a robust and durable way by merging spiritual, psychological, and practical element.
