  The aim of current study was to compare the western psychological forgiveness model with Islamic forgiveness model. In the western psychological forgiveness model in Enright model (1991) forgiveness includes Uncovering, Decision, Work and Deepening. In the same vein, content analysis and computerized stylistics method and scrutinizing religious scripture were applied in order to compare Islamic and Western forgiveness model. Scrutinized results indicated that the Quran’s verses in regards to the continuum of forgiveness revealed that four stages of forgiveness (Afve) overlooking (Safh), covering up faults (ghofran) and empathy (Rahma) appeared in an arranged way in order to focus on the deeper process of forgiveness. In Islam, there has been a strong emphasis on mercy and forgiveness of God, and such representations stress God’s merciful nature as well as a reflection of the richness of Islamic culture.
