AbstractBackground: During the COVID-19 crisis, spirituality can offer support to patients, assisting them in coping with the disease despite its associated pain and suffering. Objectives: This study investigates the spiritual experiences of patients who have recovered from COVID-19. Methods: This qualitative, interpretive phenomenological study utilized in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 16 patients, selected via purposive snowball sampling. All interviews were recorded and analyzed using Van Manen’s interpretive phenomenological approach. Results: Data analysis revealed four major themes and eleven sub-themes, each conceptually named to reflect its essence. The major themes are “the miracle of spirituality,” “discovering a new meaning for life,” “strengthening spiritual beliefs,” and “rebirth of spiritual life.”en
