CIS Public Talk given by Seherish Abrar & Jamilla Hekmoun
In the last century, mental health and religion were seen as disconnected, or at least, that religion had a negative effect on mental health. Throughout Islamic history, thinkers and leaders have spoken and dealt with mental health. In recent years there has been a shift towards therapy and mental health care that focuses on spirituality and faith as a means to recovery. This talk will encompass the key points of Islam and mental health.
