Psychology and mental health from Islamic Perspective
This document discusses psychology and mental health from an Islamic perspective. It outlines early Muslim scholars' contributions to the field, including establishing the first psychiatric ward and describing various mental illnesses and their treatments. While modern Muslim Americans may view mental illness as caused by both biological and socio-spiritual factors, the Quran and hadith support seeking treatment. Regular salat is also believed to benefit mental well-being by reducing stress and promoting relaxation through its effects on the brain.
Muslim philosophers in psychology
Islamic psychology originated during the Islamic Golden Age between the 8th and 15th centuries. Several Muslim philosophers made important contributions to the fields of psychology and psychiatry during this time through establishing early psychiatric hospitals, developing a humanist approach to mental illness, and using clinical and experimental methods. Some of the most influential figures included Abu Rayyan al Biruni who pioneered experimental psychology through his studies of reaction time, and Ali ibn Sahl Rabban Al Tabari who emphasized the ties between psychology and medicine and was one of the first to describe different types of mental disorders. Their work, along with others such as Ibn Rushd, Al Tirmidhi, Ibn Miskawayh, and Ibn Khaldun

Mental Health and Psychotherapy: A Comparison between Western and Islamic Scr...Mohd Abbas Abdul Razak
Advancement in the way of life and urbanization have brought many great changes in the psychological well-being of people in many parts of the world. The need to be materially affluent has pushed people in the urban settlements to unnecessary stress, anxiety, conflict, dilemma, and a whole lot of other adverse psychological states of mind. Due to these psychological problems, at times, people who mainly live in the cities, respond to these situations in a negative way ignoring completely the religious and ethical principles in life. In light of this situation, this research would like to explore the concepts of mental health and psychotherapy showcased by some selected schools in the Western mainstream psychology and Islamic scripturally based psychology. Particularly, ideas advocated by Freudian Psychoanalysis, Radical Behaviourism and Humanistic Psychology will be compared with Islamic psychology. For a better understanding on issues related to mental health, this research will marginally deal with the subject of human nature confined to the scope of this research. It is hoped that a proper understanding of the concept of mental health and its management could help people to lead a meaningful life, i.e. finding peace and harmony within themselves and in the external world. As a qualitative research, the researchers will utilize the textual-analysis method in analysing relevant data to this research.Hinduism
Hinduism originated from the term used to describe people living near the Indus River. It has no single founder but regards itself as eternal. Key texts include the Vedas, Upanishads, and Mahabharata. Patanjali is considered the father of Hindu psychology according to the summary. Hindu psychology focuses on four states of consciousness - sleeping, dreaming, awakened, and superconscious (Samadhi). It emphasizes controlling the mind through meditation to attain higher states of awareness.
Islamic Psychology
Islamic psychology developed concepts from early scholars including Al-Kindi, who was the first to use experimental methods, and Ashraf Ali Thanvi, who developed personality and treatment theories. Abu Zayd al-Balkhi classified disorders, differentiated between neurosis and psychosis, and pioneered cognitive therapy. Ibn Sina described numerous conditions and was a pioneer of psychophysiology and psychosomatic medicine, proposing seven inner senses to complement the outer senses.

Islamic Psychology and the Call for Islamization of Modern Psychology (Journa...Mohd Abbas Abdul Razak
The shifting of paradigms in modern psychology has left modern men in a state
of confusion on the issues pertaining to what should be the paramount concern
of psychology and in the proper understanding on the topic of human nature. In a contrastive manner Islamic psychology which has been promoted by Muslim
scholars alongside with the process of Islamization of knowledge and education, has its roots in the philosophical ideas of early Muslim scholars. Its resurgence, which started some two decades ago, is seen as an initiative to introduce Islamic understanding on man to the conflicting ideas prevalent in modern psychology. Its approach, which is mainly philosophical in nature, goes back to the ideas on
man mentioned in the two primary sources of Islam, the Qur’an and Hadith. Islamic psychology with its comprehensive ideas on human nature has been seen by Muslim scholars as a new perspective in psychology that can fill in the lacunae present in the modern psychological thoughts on man, and clears the mist that surrounds most Western theories on man. This paper represents anattempt to analyze and also synthesize Western psychology and Islamic psychology in terms of their nature, development, contributions, and problems.Psychology
