I have a Muslim brother who has been a doctor for years. His contentment and peace is astounding! When he sees someone has passed in a hospital room he always has the biggest smile on his face and is happy for them! A big part of being a doctor is seeing Allah (SWT) do His work towards the end of other peoples lives. This aspect absolutely excites him! Haha. He's certainly someone to admire.
god knows the best for sure but the verse's mechanism which says remembrance of god brings tranquility to hearts can be explained by Quran itself: whoever believes by his heart in that there is a creator who is greater than everything and nothing can happen without his permission and he desires our salvation and he is powerful to solve any possible problem in our lives surely will be calm down by remembering him at any possible hard circumstance.
MA Dr. Yusuf phrased everything about mental health in Islam beautifully - it's a spiritual journey not falling off the path. May Allah SWT bless him Ameen
It really is true, I was at my darkest back in 2016, my mental health was at its worst. I was drenched and knee deep in sins, doing all sorts of wrong as escapism and because I had a “chip on my shoulder” I made taubah to Allah on the 27th oct 2016 and I haven’t looked back since. Turning to Allah sincerely and implementing tawheed has given me the mental tarbiyah I’ve been longing for. I won’t say much but there’s a definite link between spirituality and mental health 100%
Wow. What an amazing explanation to mental health. I'm so pleased we have Muslims who are doctors and psychiatrists. With their additional knowledge in spirituality, they can make a vast contribution to the western 'tunnel vision' way of treatment.
If you know any within the UK, please let me know. I would like to get in touch with them even if for just a introductory session, if they do not offer free services. JazakAllahu Khayran.
Anybody has any advice ? I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I’m only 14 I’ve been experiencing this ever since I was 10 years old and had past Migraines which really made me feel down and years after lead to my depression , when I was only in the 6th grade . I finally reached out to a parent a year later and they was no help , and seems that they didn’t care. Now I’ve become numb to the fatigue and I’m used to it , I don’t want to live like this anymore.

study muslim Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn Yasar from Abdullah as-Sunabihi that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The sun rises and with it is a horn of Shaytan and when the sun gets higher the horn leaves it. Then when the sun reaches the meridian the horn joins it and when the sun declines the horn leaves it, and when the sun has nearly set it joins it again." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade prayer at these times.
Having anxiety I feel the earth is shaking i cannot tell they dont believe I pray i do everything i cannot taste or feel something At one end its protecting at other end A thought comes and thing suddenly appears I see cartoons types I dont know but i havent seen any doctor Islamic who can really understand they only think mentall illnes Other is that its forcing me to change lifestyle I cannot feel anything See blank space and dummies I canmot understand But at one end i think the soul is regain freshing Sometimes i dont have stamina to pray Stuck in it
i disagree with Dr Asim Yusuf that Anxiety means fear. Go online for a detailed definition of Anxiety and you will not fine a elements of fear in it. May Allah forgive him for I find that offensive to someone like myself who is enduring some form of GAD General Anxiety Disorder. I can't pray whenever I have to. (I.E: The 5 daily prayers) unless I'm around people (Worshippers of Allah) 24/7 Don't believe me?!?!?!, come inside my head please and you will see if i'm the man who cried wolf! MAy Allah the Most Forgiving Forgive us all. For some reason i feel i have more mental knowledge than Dr Asim Yusuf on mental health
Here is the one major problem with the Islamic approach and only going by it. What happens when it doesn't work for someone. If it truly was a cure all like Muslims think it is then it would be used on mass by 1000s of professionals in the mental health to help people. I am one of those people where NOTHING in Islam really helped my Schizophrenia and Autism. So I found my own ways of deal with them and controlling them. I'd expect more from a psychiatrist. That is why I told mine not to mention any religions belief. There are 100s if not 1000s of us borderline ex-muslims who's faith was destroyed by mental illnesses. When someone thinks "Well not even Allah can cure and help me now.", that just makes them give up on Islam and sometimes even life.
each person must take the history book of the world you will see that in the history book of the world How Islam is founded Islam is built by Turkey and not religion and only Islam What does Islam mean that everyone understands something else Islam is a part that helps the army to fight and go to war must understand that history has nothing to do with religion and moreover history is built on real documents that speak exactly as the Islamists did Islamists is the founder of Turkey So Turkey is their mother You have to understand
Tamim Faruk Hey man, I’m tired of talking about it on the internet, but basically if you’re looking for the truth. Use the Quran to translate itself. Hadith is corruption to the Quran, it is considered a “partner” because it makes rules etc. God is logical, we know him and his book by logically deducing meanings of words. My journey led me to the Sam Gerrans translation, I highly suggest you read it if you’re searching for the truth.
The drugs (there should be a clear distinction between medication and drugs and the ones used in psychiatry fall into the category of drugs rather than medication) prescribed for these problems are all psychoactive substances (intoxicants) just like alcohol, cocanin, heroin, hash etc (not like insulin or antibiotics which are medications) which are clearly forbidden by Allah in the Qur'an. Those drugs are definitely completely inmcompatible with Islam. How can a person be a psychiatrist and a believing Muslim at the same time while completely ignoring Allah's advice and prohibitions in the Qur'an? Al Maida 90-91 -O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than Allah], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may be successful. -Satan only wants to cause between you animosity and hatred through intoxicants and gambling and to avert you from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer. So will you not desist? How can the drugs help people to come to a certain point and how on earth they can understand and keep the advice and therapies in their mind? Those substances cloud the brain and blunt the emotions and this makes all the psychosocial solutions as well as psychothreapies and other approaches completely ineffective. Even to read the Qur'an would have no meaning for these people. In order to be able to help those people their hippocampi should be active. Hippocampus in the brain needs emotions in order to be able to tag the informations to learn. That's how we can learn and keep or record the informations and knowledge in our brain and process them when we need. Yet, as the emotions of the recepients are seriously blunted due to the drugs they receive their hippocampi have no avail. All the efforts of helping these people with therapies or Qur'an reading or whatever different approaches completely disappear within a couple of hours time altogether.
@@Alprtngakrc Islam is perhaps the only religion in the world that considers the grays in life to better human lives. When you use ayahs to give black and white statements like "psychiatry gives you haram drugs and everything in psychiatry is haram", and treating matters of halal and haram so casually, it goes against the very wisdom of Islam. Keep in mind, in Islam, we have cases where depending on the situation the haram becomes halal and the halal becomes haram. When it's a matter of life and death, wine and pork is halal for the believer to consume to survive. But in Ramadan, the halal act of eating and drinking becomes haram for the believer during this month. So when you make a statement about Islam where you are treating the concept of halal and haram so casually and making such grand blanket statements on what constitutes "medication" by Islamic definition , it shows a lack of understanding on what Islam is. I am not a scholar in the Islamic studies nor a psychiatrist so I'm not going to quote ayahs or throw around scientific terms as a form of rebuttal. But I do know enough about my religion to understand that it has compassion and kindness and treats every situation in life on a case by case basis with utmost wisdom. Follow the Prophetic example and be careful in declaring anything halal and haram, especially if you're not well educated on a subject or have the correct understanding of it. Such carelessness can portray Islam in a manner opposite to what it really is and causes damage and may even make people to lose faith in Allah altogether.
@@thisisarmando8393 I did give a proper answer. If knowledge is what you seek, ask a professional whether these medications are haram or halal. Why are you asking random strangers on UA-cam and on the internet for religious advice? What authority do we have that you will trust what I say? That's what my comment illustrates. I am not a medical professional nor a therapist, nor am I an Islamic scholar. The person I replied to is also just like me, neither a medical professional nor a an Islamic scholar. If you want true answers, go ask someone educated in Islam. My limited knowledge & understanding of Islam tells me that what this commentator said is not true to the kind and compassionate spirit of Islam. That person's comment is a black and white statement, which unfortunately is the Islam people are preaching these days. If you want to genuinely learn, find a learned teacher of Islam. Don't go asking people on UA-cam in your efforts to "learn".
@@thisisarmando8393 watching a video with a learned scholar is not the same as turning to the comments under it for help. People in the comments section are nameless and have zero accountability. They can easily spread a lot of fitnah by quoting a few ayahs or hadith and throwing in some psych terms. But a scholar who is known and respected in the community will be more careful in what they say and preach. I caution anyone who tries to learn more about Islam from the comments section. Good luck in your search for the truth. May Allah guide you to the truth and give you wisdom, Ameen.

Try this for a month.. inshallah youl be fine then.
@Pink Salt England mate. Also have raw honey with warm water every morning... Mix it well and drink. Youl be fine.
Be connected to Allah SWT. Pray 5 X a day. Recite QUR'AN KAREEM everyday. There is a healing in reciting Qur'an Kareem
Please see a psychiatrist or a clinical psychologist.
