The study explores the relationship between the variables of emotional intelligence and spirituality among COVID-19 survivors. The Emotional Intelligence Scale by Schutte et al. (1988) and Spiritual Self-Report Inventory-SISRI by David and King (2006) were used to measure the study’s aim. The study’s sample size was 200 participants (100 males & 100 females), and the participants’ age ranges were 30-50 years. To examine the study’s aim statistical tools such as descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, and Pearson product-moment correlation were used. Results show that the mean value on the variable emotional intelligence among females is 122.74 (SE= 2.30), and among males is 119.69 (SE= 2.64). The mean value on the variable spirituality among females is 52 (SE= 1.68), and among males is 53 (SE= 1.72). Results show that the correlation coefficient between emotional intelligence and spirituality is .508, which is significant at a .01 level. Results show that a significant moderate positive relationship has been found between emotional intelligence and spirituality.
