Background and Aim: Islamic spiritual health is a state in which a person leads to divine, excellence, in the shadow of insight and reasoning, revelation and mission, by making proper optional behaviors in personal and social fields. The spiritual health of couples, founders of societies, affects their efficiency. Therefore, in this descriptive-library study, the antecedents of the spiritual health of Muslim couples are investigated.
Methods: To collect data, Google Scholar, Normags, Magiran, and SID databases were searched with the keywords of "spiritual health", "spirituality", "couples", and "spouses", and their English equivalents in 1980-2020. After reviewing 36 documents, the antecedents of the spiritual health of couples in Islamic texts were extracted by the conventional content analysis method.
Results: The resulting 139 codes were classified into six subcategories (affecting family management, sexual, spiritual, behavioral, emotional, and cognitive relationships). In this article, the data related to the antecedents of spiritual health affecting the two subclasses of "emotional relations" and "cognitive" of couples were presented. The first subcategory includes seven items expressing love, forgiveness and apology, respect and appreciation, honesty, happiness, peace and relief, and observing the limits of emotional belonging. The second subcategory includes five items conflict resolution, mutual understanding and rapport, optimism and trust, contentment and expectation adjustment, fairness and justice.
Conclusion: Improving interpersonal communication skills and attitudinal-emotional characteristics by creating an emotional relationship; spending enough time to choose a partner and getting to know him/her, being frank in expressing expectations, and developing personality traits by creating a cognitive relationship has a positive effect on couples’ spiritual health. |
