Background and Aim: Mothers of children with cancer experience a significant psychological pressure, which reduces their satisfaction with life. Spiritual intelligence helps these mothers to adopt to this situation, and protects them against mental disorder and adverse life events. The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between spiritual intelligence and life satisfaction among the mothers of children with cancer.

Materials and Method: This is a descriptive and correlational study that was conducted in 2020 on 68 mothers of school age children with cancer (6 to 12 years old) hospitalized in the oncology departments of Ali Asghar Hospital in Tehran, Iran. King's spiritual intelligence questionnaire, Diener's life satisfaction questionnaire and demographic information questionnaire were used to collect the data, which were analyzed by SPSS/23 software, using Pearson's correlation and regression tests.

Results: The findings of this study showed a positive and significant relationship between life satisfaction and components of spiritual intelligence (critical existential thinking, personal meaning production, transcendental awareness, and conscious state expansion), (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Paying attention to spiritual intelligence and cultivating it increases life satisfaction in people who have been affected by cancer. Therefore, interventions to enhance spiritual intelligence is recommended for the mothers of children with cancer in order to help them deal with their situation and increase their life satisfaction.
