Psychology concentrates on the human soul, while Sufism seeks to purify the soul or heart to be closer to the Most Holy. Psychologists try to provide a kind of tips for treating the heart, among others: love and respect all things, everyone, and yourself, believe that they have the ability; always grateful for all gifts received. If the theory of psychoanalysis and behaviorism does not respect humans, because in psychoanalysis, humans are seen only serving the desires of the subconscious, behaviorism views humans as beings who submit to the environment, then humanistic psychology views humans as a positive and decisive existence. Humans are seen as unique creatures who have love, creativity, value and meaning and personal growth. This research reveals that the focus of humanism theory is on the meaning of life, and this problem in humanistic psychology is called homo ludens, namely humans who understand the meaning of life.
