سلام عليكم و جذك الله خيرا.. For Clearify the connection of what we know.. I am Listening from Egypt 🇪🇬 So much need this..

[@bashirbulbulia8929]

An interesting model of spiritual and mental health. Looking forward to further elaboration. Would you comment on the bio- chemical approach of early muslim thinkers as this is the prevailing thinking of modern pshchiatry.

[@a_fortiori_]

Have a read of Sustenance of the Soul by Imam Abu Yazid Balkhi, as mentioned by Dr Rothman

[@farahslimati8573]

ما شاء الله. I think this diagram is the best thing that Islamic psychologists have come up with. There is nothing complex about it. It is clear as crystal. The prophet ASWS said, « خلق الإنسان على الفطرة , which is alisllam . Whomever deviates from it his life becomes hell in this dounya before he goes to alakhira.اللهم قينا شرور أنفسنا وأجرنا عذاب النار.

Please could you put the link to the breathing meditation on this video/ next video. I got an error message from Safari as the video was corrupted and now I can’t find it. I think it was mentioned on lecture 4.

Can an aspect of dealing with/healing from past trauma and hurt feelings fall under jidaad un nafs?

[@hanadhanad877]

Very good question, I wish our Abdullahi can answer

[@harethbanimustafa337]

Brother Abdullah, Do you read Arabic? I have come across a small yet a powerful book, written by Al Termithi. Its written in a facinating way, supported by versus from the Quran on his understanding of this matter like no one I have seen before. If you like, I could have it shared with you. Please let me know how I may get in touch. Stay blessed.

[@aminahbergliotrolsdorph7557]

سلام عليكم.. I am sure he know Arabic.. Deep studies need that.. Even Arabic speaking students need the experience of Classical Sources to be explained up from Books to experience in the Time we are Living in.

[@harethbanimustafa337]

@@aminahbergliotrolsdorph7557By principal, you are right. I normally don't like to assume things, hence my question :)... The book I wanted to share with him is a small unique gem in 52 pages that talks about this topic in unprecedented way. Profound yet simple with its "witnesses" on what it presents from Koran. Hence I was wondering how to reach out to Abdullah to share it with him?

[@harethbanimustafa337]

انا اعتذر كوني لم ابدأ برد السلام، و هذا كان الأوجب! My apologies as I didn't reply back with "WA alikum alsalam", which should have been the foremost sentence in my response.
