Abstract

The integration of traditional and modern medicine has become a growing concern in the field of healthcare, particularly in the context of healing that involves psychological and spiritual aspects. One traditional approach that has gained attention is Sufi Healing, a method of treatment based on the practices and values of Sufism. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Sufi Healing and its potential for integration with modern medical approaches. The research employs a literature review method by collecting data from scientific journals, books, online articles, and other credible sources. Sufi Healing is an alternative therapy that has been known since the rise of Islam and Sufism, and is now increasingly studied in the fields of transpersonal psychology and psychoneuroimmunology. This approach emphasizes the connection between spiritual awareness and physical health, demonstrating the interrelation between mind, body, and soul in the healing process.
