چكيده فارسي :
يكي از ابعاد مهم سلامت كه در مقايسه با جنبه‌هاي مختلف آن ارزش و اهميت بيشتري دارد، سلامت معنوي است. ديگر ابعاد سلامت، مقدمه‌يي براي دستيابي به سلامت معنوي و بهره‌مندي از فضايل روحي و معنوي خواهد بود كه همه‌ي انسان‌ها آن را قبول دارند. در حقيقت سلامت معنوي رابطه‌ي مستقيم با سعادت دنيا و آخرت انسان دارد كه در ارتباط با خداي متعال دست‌يافتني است و از اين جهت، ارزش بالاتري را به خود اختصاص مي‌دهد. در همين زمينه آنچه ظرف سلامت معنوي در وجود انسان محسوب مي‌شود قلب آدمي است
چكيده لاتين :
An important type of well-being, which is more valuable and critical than
other ones, is spiritual well-being. Other types of well-being are in fact the
prerequisite of achieving spiritual well-being and utilizing spiritual virtues
that are accepted by any human being. Indeed, spiritual well-being is directly
associated with the bliss in the world and the hereafter. Thus, it is more
precious than other types of well-being. In this regard, heart is considered the
container of spiritual well-being (1). The notion of heart mentioned in the
Quran is different from the pectoral heart shaped inside humans’ chest. It has
therefore been described as a container which is capacious and limited at the
same time and can be the cause of guidance or misleading (2).
In the Quran, the concept of heart refers to humans’ soul (3-5), which is not
physical and constitutes a major portion of human being. It encompasses
humans’ personality, beliefs, ethics, and spiritual well-being (6).
As a result, the Quran has referred to heart disease, which is totally different
from physical diseases that humans may suffer from. A sick heart is the one
that is not a mirror of the truths of existence and does not reflect divine
manifestations; a healthy heart, on the contrary, does have these capabilities
(7). Furthermore, a sick heart is inclined toward debauchery and goes
beyond divine limits under the influence of evil temptations (1).
Many of the social, ethical, and cultural anomalies that are witnessed
nowadays have their roots in the sick heart. As a matter of fact, heart is the
main focus of human spirit and can cause human happiness or hardship.
Therefore, paying attention to heart cleanliness and its role in achieving
spiritual well-being, the way this type of well-being can be achieved, and
strategies that should be followed to improve it can impact other types of
well-being, hence leading to well-being for the whole society.
