In the research the depression was measured with the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the quality of lifewas measured with (FACT-G) and the spiritual life quality with FACIT Sp.12 (The Functional Assessment of the Chronic Illness Therapy Spiritual) on the case (experimental). Namely, 10 cancer patients undergoing the radiotherapy who participated in the self ruqyah treatment program and the control group namely 10 patients who did not participate in program. After 25 days, the cancer patients of both groups were examined their cortisol saliva and were measured their levels of the depression, life quality, spiritual life quality.
RESULTS: Result found that respondents whose duration of diagnosis is <1 year (40%) and are in stage III (60%), followed by respondents who are in stage II (35%), stage IV (5%). Then, respondents who had radiotherapy 45% who had been previously operated on, while patients who had been chemotherapy that had been operated on were 30% and 30% who immediately underwent radiation therapy after going through chemical therapy. In addition, there were differences in the mean pretest and posttest in the treatment group of 8.35 while in the control group there was a mean difference of 15.3. These results prove that there is a difference in the average level of cortisol before cancer patients follow the independent ruqyah program after joining the program.
