(Alquran Alkarim) And psychotherapy

Abstract

      The Holy Quran does not view psychological states as the result of stored complexes and shortcomings. Rather, its view stems from the all-knowing human nature, which may be affected by the influences of desires and whims. The person who adheres to the guidance of the Quran works to rid himself of these influences and adheres to the virtues that are in harmony with that nature. The Quran controls the instincts that conflict with human nature and eliminates them through faith, patience, and truthfulness.       The Quran's approach to psychological treatment is based on the premise that the basis of human behavior is awareness and vigilant consciousness, not subconsciousness and unconsciousness. God Almighty says: بَلِ الْإِنْسَانُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بَصِيرَةٌ﴾  أَلْقَى مَعَاذِيرَهُ  ﴿ وَلَو (القيامة: 14-15) A conscious person bears responsibility for all of his thoughts and words, which express his intentions and ideas. His actions contribute to his behavioral life. A reader of the many Quranic verses related to the soul and its conditions will discover that they call for insight and adherence to moderation, balance, and harmony.       This makes it a broad field for psychotherapy, which does not negate the serious efforts of psychologists, based on a scientific approach, but rather supports them and helps invest them in an approach disciplined by the concepts and objectives of the Qur’an.
