Spiritual health is one dimension of human health, but the concept and its components are still a subject of discussion. The purpose of this study was to identify the components of spiritual well-being based on the Quran and hadiths. This was a qualitative study conducted as thematic analysis. Qualitative data were extracted by studying the Quran and hadiths, and then coded and categorized. The categories were re-examined and refined, and the main themes were discovered afterward. The findings of this study showed that spiritual well-being has cognitive, emotional and behavioral levels with the four components of patience, certainty, justice and jihad, while spiritual illness entails doubt, impatience, oppression and weakness. In the processes of achieving spiritual health, each component undergoes the stages of self-awareness, God’s knowledge, certainty of heart, and attachment to God. By contrast, in the process of the formation of each component, there is a spiritual illness that includes ignorance of self or God, doubt, and attachment to non-God. The results of the current study are useful for evaluating spiritual health and planning for education in order to enhance spiritual well-being and elaborating an Islam-based spiritual health pattern.
