The Basics

Beschreibung

Islamic Psychology: The Basics is a jargon-free and accessible introduction that explores psychology from an Islamic perspective, and provides a foundation level overview of the fundamental principles and practices of Islamic psychology. The book introduces concepts, models, approaches, themes, and theories you need to know to study the mind, soul, and behaviour based on Islamic scripture.

Offering an overview of Islamic psychology and what Islamic psychologists do, chapters address key topics including the history of the evolution of the science of the soul, and the psychology of human behaviour and experiences. Rassool examines the concepts of the Fitrah, the Nafs (Self), the Aql (Intellect), the Rü (Soul) the Qalb (Heart), and the concept of Islamic healing and spiritual interventions. Other themes include the Qur'an and psychology, models and approaches in Islamic psychology, interpreting Islamic psychology for modern times, and the contemporary scope of the practice of Islamic psychology.

Outlining the challenges and solutions of the development of Islamic psychology and potential future trends, and including features to aid learning, this is the ideal introductory book for students in Psychology, Islamic Psychology, and Islamic Studies, as well as professionals including counsellors and therapists, and anyone interested in psychology from an Islamic perspective.

Rezensionen

"Islamic Psychology is a fast-growing discipline. The present book is a pioneering effort to create a bridge between the conventional psychology, which I regard as reductionist, and Islamic approach which is holistic and deals with total human being. I strongly recommend it as a text for graduate programmes in Psychology." - Professor Dr Anis Ahmad, Vice Chancellor, Riphah International University. Pakistan

"This pioneering work encompasses a variety of psychological topics from an Islamic perspective and is an essential text for students as well as practitioners of Islamic Psychology. I congratulate the author for a job well done." - Professor Dr Amber Haque, Professor of Clinical Psychology, Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, Doha, Qatar

"Prof G. Hussein's book on Islamic Psychology is a blend of contemporary psychology and Islamic Psychology. The author has distinctively focused on the biological basis of behaviour grounded in Islamic teachings. I presume the mentioning of clinical supervision in this book is a unique contribution, which wasn't mentioned in the Islamic psychology books previously." - Professor Dr Muhammad Tahir Khalily, Vice president Academics and Professor of Clinical Psychology International Islamic University Islamabad, Pakistan
