The findings of the research provide evidence that the love and fear of God among women are reported to be higher than among men. The study also shows there is a positive correlation between income and love and fear of God, which means the lower the income is, the lower the fear and love of God. Marital status and age have also been reported to influence the level of forgiveness. The study demonstrates that religiosity is another factor that is positively correlated with forgiveness. The level of forgiveness is comparatively higher in individuals who identify themselves as religious; it has been found that love of God and fear of God are associated with forgiveness. It has been revealed that there is a significant relationship between psychological resilience, self-forgiveness, and God perception. In other words, self-forgiveness and positive God perception contribute to psychological resilience.
