About This Book
A Muslim may have full iman in Allah and His decree and yet still struggle with depression, anxiety, grief, or destructive thought patterns that require professional attention. A Reference Guide for Character Development — Therapy from the Qur'an and Sunnah, Book 1 by Dr. Feryad A. Hussain offers an Islamically-grounded approach to psychological wellbeing — one that neither dismisses faith nor ignores the reality of mental health challenges.
As the first book in the series, it establishes the framework: what Islamic psychology consists of, how it integrates with contemporary understanding of the mind, and how the Qur'an and Sunnah speak directly to the conditions that afflict the human self.
What This Book Covers
The Islamic Framework for Mental Health
The book opens by grounding Islamic psychology in the primary sources — establishing that Islam has always recognized the complexity of the human self and has addressed its struggles through revelation. The concept of nafs, the role of the heart, and the relationship between spiritual and psychological wellbeing are all examined.
Character Development as Ibadah
One of the book's central contributions is its treatment of character development not as self-improvement in the secular sense but as an act of worship — a Muslim's effort to bring their character into alignment with what Allah has commanded and what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) modeled.
Practical Therapeutic Guidance
The book provides practical tools drawn from Islamic teaching alongside professionally grounded therapeutic frameworks — making it useful both for individuals working on their own character and for Muslim counselors and mental health professionals.
About the Author
Dr. Feryad A. Hussain is a British clinical psychologist who has worked extensively in integrating Islamic principles with contemporary psychological practice. Published by International Islamic Publishing House (IIPH).
Who This Book Is For
Muslims navigating psychological struggles who want an approach that honors both their faith and the reality of their condition. Also valuable for Muslim counselors, therapists, and Islamic educators who work with people facing mental health challenges.
