Dimensi Teoretikal Psikoterapi Komplementari dalam Tafsir al-Qurṭubī

The world's transition to an endemic phase has had a significant impact on the global community's mental health. The World Health Organization (WHO) predicts a silent pandemic related to mental health due to Covid-19 during this phase. This can be attributed to the increased pressures of post-pandemic life, including economic aspects and changes in daily routines. Mental health issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, and burnout have been identified. Therefore, initiatives like complementary psychotherapy are crucial for maintaining mental well-being. This study aims to discuss the theoretical dimensions of complementary psychotherapy in Tafsir al-Qurtubi. The focus is on a compilation of interpretations of 18 verses related to tafakkur (contemplation) found in 13 surahs. Using a qualitative method with a thematic content analysis approach, the study reveals that Imam al-Qurtubi's compilation of interpretations of āyāt al-tafakkur is comprehensive and aligns with several dimensions of psychotherapy. These dimensions include the recovery of traumatic experiences, re-education, reassurance, and psychological support. The combination of interpretations clearly demonstrates Imam al-Qurtubi's contribution to developing a complementary approach for preserving psychological well-being. In conclusion, the compilation of interpretations of āyāt al-tafakkur by Imam al-Qurtubi deserves recognition as a valuable part of the theoretical foundation of complementary psychotherapy in managing mental well-being during the endemic phase.
