The study was conducted with interviews, observation, and document study. The results of this study indicate that when doing therapeutic communication, thibbun nabawi therapists have dimensions in the form of: (1) the belief that God is the only healer, (2) submission through prayer, (3) inner tranquility, (4) patience, (5) adherence to the Shari'a, (6) understanding of treatment methods based on the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad, and (7) the ability to convey religious messages to patients. These dimensions of religiosity are inherent in the therapist which are then shown in verbal and nonverbal messages during therapy. The functions of the religiosity of thibbun nabawi therapists in the therapeutic communication process are: (1) provoding comfort to the patient, (2) giving positive suggestion to the patient, and (3) increase credibility to the therapists.
