Ketangguhan Keluarga Menghadapi Pandemi COVID 19: Perspektif Psikologi dan Islam

Abstract

Often stressful or traumatic events have different effects on different individuals in the family. However, family resilience refers to the ability to maintain the family functions, including to provide supports for all family members. This study aims to explain the relevance of the meaning contained in the concept of family resilience through Islamic values, associated with its implementation in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The research method was Islamic Psychology development. The results found that there are a number of verses of the Quran and Hadith that have relevant meaning to the six dimensions of family resilience according to Oh dan Chang (2014). The dimension of collective confidence is relevant to the concepts of patience, self-confidence, firm conviction and being not desperate. Dimension of interconnectedness is relevant to the command to protect oneself and the family, to unite (not being divorced) and to avoid prejudice. The dimension of positive life view is relevant to have the positive thinking (husnudzan) towards the decree of Allah, to believe that after difficulties there will be ease, and to believe that each self is only burdened according to the limits of his ability. The dimension of resourcefulness is relevant to the command to make effort on the things we do and to have th hard work. The dimension of open communication patterns is relevant to have love and affection, to have dialogue with others, and to remind each other. Whereas the dimension of collaborative problem solving is relevant to help each other, to compete in good deeds, and to prioritize others.

“…Pada abad 21 ini dunia telah dilanda sebuah pandemi, yaitu pandemi COVID-19 yang secara resmi telah dideklarasikan oleh WHO (World Helath Organization) pada taggal 11 Maret 2020 (World Health Organization, 2020). Indonesia sendiri pandemi COVID-19 berkembang secara masif yang dimulai pada awal bulan Maret 2020 (Nuranisah Djamal et al, 2022). Hingga pada tanggal 3 Mei 2020 jumlah korban yang terpapar virus COVID-19 telah tercatat sebanyak 10.843, jumlah dengan orang meninggal sebanyak 831 orang, dan jumlah orang yang sembuh sebanyak 1.665 orang (PIKOBAR, 2020).…”

“…Keluarga dapat menjadi sumber stressor bagi individu, namun keluarga juga dapat menjadi sumber dukungan sosial yang sangat penting bagi individu juga (Nuranisah Djamal et al, 2022). Ketika individu dapat mengkomunikasikan terkait dengan apa yang membuat mereka stress dan ketidakpastian yang dapat diatasi secara bersama-sama maka individu tersebut akan menjadi lebih resilien (Afifi et al, 2006).…”

“…Dalam keluarga pasti mengalami masalah dan stress, sehingga dalam keluarga membutuhkan resiliensi didalamnya. Resiliensi keluarga harus mempunyai kemampuan untuk membedakan mana kondisi yang bisa dirubah dan tidak bisa dirubah (Nuranisah Djamal et al, 2022). Sedangkan adanya peristiwa pandemi COVID-19 merupakan kondisi yang tidak bisa dirubah, sehingga kita sebagai manusia hanya bisa mengatasi masalah ini dan mencari jalan keluar dari adanya masalah ini.…”
