Ibn ʿAjība’s Concept of Tauhīd and Its Role in Fostering Psychological Resilience
Keywords:
Tauhid, Ibnu Ajibah, Psychological Resilience, TasawufAbstract
Recently, discussions about mental illness have become increasingly interesting. This is due to the large number of cases related to mental illness such as anxiety, burnout, and depression. If these illnesses are not addressed immediately, they can lead to serious consequences such as suicide attempts. Therefore, this study aims to explain how to increase resilience for people with mental illness based on Islamic Sufism. One of the Sufi concepts to be studied is the tauhid model of Ibn Ajibah. This research suggests that Ibn Ajibah's tauhid concept can serve as a strengthener of resilience, as Sufi concepts in general can be utilized for mental strengthening. This is because these concepts are closely tied to human psychology. By strengthening an individual's tauhid, their resilience will also be strengthened. Individuals with strong resilience will survive, and even recover from mental illness.The primary sources of this study are Ibn ʿAjība’s own works, namely al-Baḥr al-Madīd fī Tafsīr al-Qurʾān al-Majīd and Kashf al-Niqāb ʿan Sirr Lubb al-Albāb. The secondary sources consist of several classical Sufi texts that are thematically related to the discussion and provide complementary perspectives on his concept of tawḥīd and spiritual psychology.
