Abstrak

Mental health discussions are still relevant in society, especially among young people. The increase in suicides among university students shows the importance of the ability to manage emotions in dealing with life's problems. The increase in mental health problems among university students gives us awareness to improve mental health, as for one way to improve mental health, we can get it through the implementation of prayer. Students need to be obedient in worship, and prayer can be a therapy for mental health. When we do it, prayer provides peace of mind and body. Prayer becomes a communication tool to express gratitude for all His favors. Prayers performed with Khushu can be therapy for mental health. By practicing prayer in khusyu', a person gets the benefits of prayer itself. This condition can provide peace of mind and soul for a person to face problems in their life. In addition, prayer can increase feelings of confidence and reduce stress levels. The practice of prayer can increase feelings of closeness to God through understanding each meaning of the recitation in prayer and each movement in prayer. This has a positive impact on the mental health of university students.
