- Abstract
Acceptance is one of the concepts found to impact mental health positively. On the other hand, there are many studies that prove a positive relationship between faith, religion, and spirituality with mental health, quality of life, well-being, or positive outcomes. Acceptance has a similar meaning to ridha in Islam. This study aims to examine two concepts, acceptance and Ridha, with qualitative methods in the form of a literature review. Data is collected by reviewing relevant books and then by content analysis. The results showed that Ridha differs from the acceptance due to the side of spirituality that underlies the building of ridha. The similarity between the two concepts in terms of understanding is that both Ridha and acceptance mean the absence of an attitude of opposition which will produce psychological flexibility, manifested in positive emotions in the form of a sense of calm. While in terms of benefits, acceptance positively affects cognition, emotions, and individual behaviour. The same is also found in the concept of ridha but added with a spiritual aspect. Even more important is that the spiritual aspect drives the emergence of positive impacts on cognition, emotion, and behaviour.
