Book Synopsis

This book provides an understanding of behavioural and substance disorders from an IslÄmic psychology perspective.

Despite the religious prohibitions against the use of most substances, addiction is a significant psychosocial and spiritual problem both in Muslim majority countries and among Muslim minorities.

This book will synthesise the body of knowledge of the psychology of addiction from an IslÄmic perspectives to foster awareness and understanding of addictive behaviours to break that stigma. It will also provide knowledge required to respond effectively to Musli
