What is Islamic Psychology?

Islamic psychology is the systematic study of mental, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual dimensions of the human being integrating evidence from empirical, rational, and revelatory sources, as well as verifiable reports and transmitted wisdom from the Islamic tradition.

It honors the heart, mind, and spirit.

It recognizes the complexity of human experience beyond diagnostic categories.
