A Reference Guide for Character Development (Therapy from Quran and Sunnah-1)

Even when a believer fully trusts Allah and His divine plan, they may yet experience psychological problems that call for professional help from a therapist. Though these are frequently the most significant aspects of a Muslim's life, contemporary secular psychology does not frequently take into account the influence or advantages of religion and spirituality on our well-being. This can frequently result in a crisis of faith in addition to increasing anguish and suffering.Dr. Feryad A. Hussain combines authentic hadiths and verses from the Qur'an with contemporary psychology in this book. Dr. Hussain draws on her extensive experience as a clinical psychologist to offer alternative understandings based on Allah's message to humanity through an Islamic reframing of eighty-five therapeutic themes, including self-control, patience, accepting advice, anger/aggression, being grateful, confidence, coping, flexibility, guilt, and many more. Through prayer, meditation, and faith, the text provides the client and therapist with reason and divine consolation to help them resolve their problems.
