Description

Depression in Muslim societies is fast becoming one of the most pressing issues facing the Ummah today. However, conversations around mental health issues such as depression is still considered taboo in Muslim communities resulting in widespread misunderstanding, suffering and misguided treatments for those afflicted. In this new book Idris Salik begins by fleshing out the history of how Islamic scholars and Muslim physicians grappled with the scourge of melancholia through novel techniques and systematic approaches marriying Islamic spirituality with their insights into medicine and psychology. Salik also draws upon his own past professional experiences as a support worker and personal struggles with mental health.As well as grounding his ideas in the Islamic tradition, with reference to the Quran and Sunnah, Salik helpfully organises his book around the (universal) fundamental human needs as espoused by the Chilean intellectual Manfred Max-Neef, arguing that these are needs which Islam recognises and promotes.Salik thus reflects on the human need for Subsistence, Protection, Affection, Understanding, Participation, Leisure, Creation/Creativity, Identity, Freedom and Transcendence. What emerges is a book brimming with compassion, sincerity and sound practical advice as well as a call for the reader to begin the process of taking back control of their life while putting one's faith, hope and trust in God.
