Book Description
"Islam & Psychology: Principles and Practices" by Mohd Nasir Masroom is an insightful and comprehensive exploration of the integration of Islamic teachings with contemporary psychological principles. Drawing on the author’s extensive experience as a senior lecturer in Islamic Psychology and Counseling, this book delves into the rich and nuanced intersection of faith, spirituality, and mental health. The book is divided into 20 engaging chapters, each offering a deep dive into critical aspects of Islamic psychology. It begins by exploring the foundational interface between psychology and religion, emphasizing the often-overlooked dimension of spirituality. Early chapters introduce key Islamic concepts such as al-Ruh (the spirit), al-Qalb (the heart), al-Nafs (the self), and al-Aqal (the intellect), providing readers with a thorough understanding of the Islamic view of human nature (Fitrah) and personality. As the book progresses, it offers a detailed examination of the development of embryonic stages, the significant contributions of five eminent scholars of Islamic psychology, and the profound implications of the pillars of faith (iman) and Islam on individual well-being. The discussion extends to the spiritual science of Tasawwuf, exploring spiritual heart diseases and the illnesses of the soul, and providing insights into their spiritual cures. The book also addresses practical applications of Islamic psychology in therapeutic settings, with dedicated chapters on Islamic counseling, psychotherapy, and mental health. These sections highlight how Islamic teachings can be effectively utilized in counseling and therapy, considering the cultural and religious contexts of the patients. A unique exploration of the connection between Jinn, Ruqyah (spiritual healing), and mental health further enriches this discussion. In the final chapters, the book turns its focus to the emotional aspects of the human experience. It examines emotions such as patience, gratitude, acceptance, trust in Allah, bravery, fear, happiness, sadness, love, and hate, all through the lens of Islamic teachings. These discussions offer a holistic view of how emotions are understood, managed, and nurtured in Islam. "Islam & Psychology: Principles and Practices" is a valuable resource for students, scholars, and professionals in the fields of psychology and Islamic studies, as well as for anyone interested in the ways in which faith and spirituality influence mental health and well-being. By bridging classical Islamic knowledge with modern psychological practices, this book offers a unique perspective that not only enhances our understanding of psychology but also enriches our approach to mental health in a way that is deeply rooted in faith and spirituality.

Applying Islamic Principles to Clinical Mental Health Care
Author: Hooman Keshavarzi
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000097021
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
This text outlines for the first time a structured articulation of an emerging Islamic orientation to psychotherapy, a framework presented and known as Traditional Islamically Integrated Psychotherapy (TIIP). TIIP is an integrative model of mental health care that is grounded in the core principles of Islam while drawing upon empirical truths in psychology. The book introduces the basic foundations of TIIP, then delves into the writings of early Islamic scholars to provide a richer understanding of the Islamic intellectual heritage as it pertains to human psychology and mental health. Beyond theory, the book provides readers with practical interventional skills illustrated with case studies as well as techniques drawn inherently from the Islamic tradition. A methodology of case formulation is provided that allows for effective treatment planning and translation into therapeutic application. Throughout its chapters, the book situates TIIP within an Islamic epistemological and ontological framework, providing a discussion of the nature and composition of the human psyche, its drives, health, pathology, mechanisms of psychological change, and principles of healing. Mental health practitioners who treat Muslim patients, Muslim clinicians, students of the behavioral sciences and related disciplines, and anyone with an interest in spiritually oriented psychotherapies will greatly benefit from this illustrative and practical text.

Evil Eye, Jinn Possession, and Mental Health Issues
Author: G. Hussein Rassool
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317226984
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Evil Eye, Jinn Possession, and Mental Health Issues raises awareness of the cultural considerations, religion and spirituality involved in the assessment of Muslim patients with mental health problems. The belief that Jinn spirits can cause mental illness in humans through affliction or possession is widely accepted among Muslims, meaning this belief is a crucial, but frequently overlooked, aspect of mental health problems with Muslim patients in psychiatric care. This book explores the nature of such beliefs, their relationship to mental health and the reasons for their importance in clinical practice. The book argues that it is vital to consider mental disorders as a multifactorial affair, in which spiritual, social, psychological and physical factors may all play a role. It suggests differential diagnostic skills may have an important part to play in offering help to those who believe their problems are caused by possession, and provides accessible literature on clinical issues and practice, interventions, management and evidence-based practice to help health workers achieve a better understanding of Muslim beliefs about possession and how to work with patients that hold such beliefs. Evil Eye, Jinn Possession, and Mental Health Issues is an essential manual for mental health professionals, social workers and psychologists. It should also be of interest to academics and students in the healthcare sciences.

Islamically Integrated Psychotherapy
Author: Carrie York Al-Karam
Publisher: Templeton Press
ISBN: 9781599475813
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Integrating the Islamic faith with modern psychotherapy is at the forefront of the spiritually integrated psychotherapy movement. To bring this work to wider attention and to promote its continuation, Dr. Carrie York Al-Karam has brought together the present volume of nine essays, each of which is written by a Muslim clinician who practices Islamically integrated psychotherapy (IIP)—a modern approach that unites the teachings, principles, and interventions of the faith with Western therapeutic approaches. As delineated in the Introduction, IIP has emerged from a variety of domains including the psychology of religion and spirituality, multicultural psychology and counseling, transpersonal psychology, Muslim Mental Health, and Islamic Psychology. The individual chapters then describe a variety of ways IIP is practiced by Muslim clinicians in their service provision with Muslim clients. The contributors discuss a wide range of topics, such as how Islam can be viewed as a system for psychological wellbeing, or a “science of the soul”; what marital counseling can look like from an Islamically-integrated perspective; Prophet Mohammed as a psycho-spiritual exemplar in a new approach called The HEART Method; the use of Quranic stories in family therapy; as well as using Islamic teachings when working with Muslim children and adolescents. A description of the various approaches is supplemented with discussions of their theoretical underpinnings as well as research-based recommendations for advancing clinical application. What emerges is a vital resource for Muslim and non-Muslim clinicians alike as well as the lay Muslim reader wanting to know more about how the Islamic faith and psychotherapy are engaging with each other in a modern clinical context.

Counseling Muslims
Author: Sameera Ahmed
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135859558
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
A young female client presents with anorexia nervosa and believes that her problem has its roots in magic; parents are helpless in the face of their son's substance abuse issues; an interracial couple cannot agree on how to discipline their children. How would you effectively help these clients while balancing appropriate interventions that are sensitive to religious, cultural, social, and gender differences? This handbook answers these difficult questions and helps behavioral health practitioners provide religio-culturally-competent care to Muslim clients living in territories such as North America, Australia, and Europe. The issues and interventions discussed in this book, by authoritative contributors, are diverse and multifaceted. Topics that have been ignored in previous literature are introduced, such as sex therapy, substance abuse counseling, university counseling, and community-based prevention. Chapters integrate tables, lists, and suggested phrasing for practitioners, along with case studies that are used by the authors to help illustrate concepts and potential interventions. Counseling Muslims is also unique in its broad scope, which reflects interventions ranging from the individual to community levels, and includes chapters that discuss persons born in the West, converts to Islam, and those from smaller ethnic minorities. It is the only guide practitioners need for information on effective service delivery for Muslims, who already bypass significant cultural stigma and shame to access mental health services.

An Introduction to Islamic Psychology
Author: Mohammad Khodayarifard
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900450575X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
Contemporary psychology is highly influenced by positivism and scientific naturalism. Psychological studies make efforts to control the variables and provide operational definitions of subjective constructs in order to reach the most concrete conclusions. Such efforts are admirable in natural sciences since they have led to a better life. But, this worldview has deprived contemporary psychology of more qualitative sources of knowledge like waḥy (revelation). The present book introduces Islamic psychology as a paradigm, which can apply waḥy knowledge and consider religious/spiritual dimensions of humans in scientific exploration. The first part discusses the possibility, foundations, and characteristics of Islamic psychology. The second part introduces research methodology in Islamic psychology. The third part reviews the Quranic theory of personality and highlights the concept of shakeleh. Finally, the fourth part presents the theories and methods of religious psychotherapy in the Islamic tradition. Each part provides introductory content for readers interested in Islamic psychology.
