Abstract

This study aims to present a conceptual model of resilience in the face of grief based on Islamic sources. It is organized as a descriptive (library-based) study and is fundamental in nature. The method of conducting this study was both qualitative and quantitative, utilizing conventional content analysis methods for both manifest and latent content. In the quantitative section, 11 experts’ opinions were employed.
The findings of the study show that from the analysis of religious propositions, a pattern of resilience in the face of grief based on Islamic sources can be extracted. This model includes components, subcomponents, and consequences. The study clearly identifies five components of resilience in the face of grief: acceptance of loss, perception of divine presence and oversight, gratitude, positive confrontation despite internal pressure, resilient action; thirty subcomponents, and ten consequences for resilience in the face of grief. The content of this model, in addition to expanding knowledge in the field of resilience and grief, can be employed in confronting and overcoming the challenges surrounding loss and the passing of loved ones in society, thereby protecting individuals from the psychological harms of grief.
