Learning anxiety is a common psychological problem among students, including santri in Islamic boarding schools who face memorization demands, classical text study, and a dense dormitory routine. This article analyzes the role of dhikr (remembrance of God) in enhancing psychological tranquility and reducing learning anxiety among santri of Sidogiri Islamic Boarding School, Pasuruan, East Java. Using a qualitative library research design, the study thematically analyzes -indexed articles and key references in the psychology of religion. The synthesis suggests that dhikr operates through physiological regulation, cognitive-emotional regulation, positive religious coping, and strengthened self-regulated learning. Its benefits depend on sincerity, consistency, and balance with systematic study effort. Field-based quasi-experimental research is recommended to test these propositions empirically.References
