Treating Addiction from an Islamic Psychology Perspective

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Treating Addiction from an Islamic Psychology Perspective is an urgently needed and groundbreaking work in the realm of addiction treatment. This book fills a critical void that has long existed in the therapeutic space for Muslims grappling with addiction. As a health psychologist who has witnessed the devastating effects of addiction on my Muslim clients, I understand the profound struggles and stigma they face. This book addresses these unique challenges with empathy and precision, offering therapists the essential tools and insights required to effectively treat addiction through the lens of Islamic psychology.

Professor Dr G.Hussein Rassool masterfully integrates established psychological theories with core Islamic principles, providing a holistic and comprehensive approach to understanding and treating addiction. This synthesis not only enriches the therapeutic process but also resonates deeply with the cultural and spiritual needs of Muslim clients.

This book is an invaluable resource for mental health professionals, educators, students, and anyone dedicated to understanding addiction within an Islamic context. I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend this book to all who seek to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by addiction."

"As a sex and porn addiction therapist I know that addiction is a huge issue all over the Muslim world and the Muslim communities living in the West too.

This book is going to be a useful resource for practitioners who work with Muslim clients. Incorporating traditional Islamic knowledge with modern techniques is going to give practitioners a great opportunity to develop a deeper understanding and learn techniques that will be effective in developing holistic treatment plans, Insha'Allah""
