Abstract: This study explores the potential of Ruqyah, an Islamic spiritual healing practice, as a complementary therapeutic approach for managing panic disorder. The study used an A-B-A’ single case design with one participant (aged 24 years) experiencing test-related fear (test anxiety). Panic and Agoraphobia Scale and Chambless Worry Questionnaire were used to assess before and after the 7-week Ruqyah intervention (5 sessions). The intervention combined Ruqyah recitation with imaginal exposure techniques. Post-intervention results revealed: • Reduction in panic symptoms from 66.66% to 16.66% • Reduction in avoidant behavior from 75% to 37.5% • Improvement in anticipatory anxiety from 62.5% to 12.5% • Work/family related problems reduced from 62.5% to 25% • Health anxiety reduced from 50% to 12.5% • Overall anxious mood reduced from 60% to 24.28% This study provides preliminary evidence on the potential of Ruqyah as a complementary treatment for panic disorder, especially for patients who value spiritual modalities.
