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

Offering an overview of Isl?mic psychology and what Isl?mic 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 R?? (Soul) the Qalb (Heart), and the concept of Isl?mic healing and spiritual interventions. Other themes include the Qur'an and psychology, models and approaches in Isl?mic psychology, interpreting Isl?mic psychology for modern times, and the contemporary scope of the practice of Isl?mic psychology.

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