Contemporary research trends in Islamic Psychology generally characterized as it
might better be referred to as ‘Islam and Psychology’ that may be due to the lack of
an agreed upon definition or a theoretical model, and the research is coming from
a broad array of various disciplines including psychology, theology, philosophy,
history, and mental health etc. The major areas that constitute the building blocks of
Islamic Psychology are such as nafs, fitra, reliance, attachment to god, rooh, action,
tawheed, taqwa, jihad al-nafs, etc. However, much of the scholarship published
on the Islamic concepts tends to be philosophical in nature and often somewhat
unusable partly because the terminology has not been translated or operationalized
into psychological nomenclature. Islamic Psychology is ideally a domain in which
scholars and practitioners from a number of basic and applied disciplines are engaged
including but not limited to psychologists, psychiatrists, religious studies scholars,
theologians, imams, philosophers, historians, anthropologists and others and they all
think about Islamic Psychology in different ways and have specialized knowledge and
expertise that they can share through collaboration as these broad disciplines and sub
disciplines are also a part of the paradigm. The definitional clarity is the key challenge
in developing a discipline that is certainly seems to be the case with discipline of
Islamic Psychology because scholarship is happening and not bound in any sort of organized or comprehensive way. This paper discusses the parametrical concerns and
issues in researches in defining and developing Islamic Psychology as a discipline. |
