Abstract
The concept of emotion, which was not emphasized too much at first, gained momentum over time and became a concept that began to be explored and talked about. Because it is not possible for people who are in the center of life to be isolated from their emotions and live as if they do not exist. Even if the person suppresses their emotions or tries to keep them under control, after a while, emotions will emerge when they find the first opportunity, and there is a possibility to make this emergence by changing direction. For this reason, people should learn to live with and control them by getting to know them, rather than running away from their emotions or pretending they don’t exist. There are some things the Quran wants from believers in the context of controlling emotions. In these requests, the Quran sometimes aimed directly at the control of emotions, and sometimes wanted people to control their emotions with behavior. This study explains the Quran’s messages about the control of negative emotions psychologically and sociologically with the historical documentation technique in the context of the commitment that the person establishes with the creator, the effect on the person’s worship, and the person’s ability to express himself correctly in the society. As a result, it has been found that the Qur’an can control people’s negative feelings in many issues such as the devotion that is established as a result of the innate desire to trust in people, and the prayers and behaviors of people who have the benefits of this devotion.
