Studies have shown that in the field of spiritual health in Covid 19, studies have studied the impact of faith, religious and spiritual beliefs on human physiology, including strengthening physical and mental resistance. On the other hand, the evidence shows that religious and spiritual interventions play a key role in the current pervasive health crisis. Other studies have suggested solutions and suggestions for improving the mental health of people with and involved with covid 19. The issue of consolidating and deepening religious and spiritual beliefs in order to communicate more with God was one of the important issues that have been emphasized in the articles.
