Overview

Psychology of Personality: Islamic Perspectives is the first edited volume of selected papers on human nature and personality from an Islamic perspective. It is a modest attempt at clarifying the conceptual confusion that resulted in keeping psychology separate from religion, separate from a soul. The authors have incorporated religious and transcendental concepts that shape human personality, which are based on the Qur'ān and the works of early Muslim scholars. It is not a book on psychotherapy, however, the views on human nature are important for the development of an Islamic approach to therapy.The text is timely due to the increased attention to Islam and its significance in the lives of more than one billion adherents, and also because modern psychology is demonstrating a new interest in indigenous and alternative perspectives of psychology. It is hoped that this work will stimulate further research on the psychology of personality based on the Islamic assumptions of human nature.This book is targeted for students undertaking psychology course with emphasis on Islamic perspective. It is also suitable for researchers and scholars whose works are related to the Islamic psychology of personality.
