Evil Eye, Jinn Possession, and Mental Health Issues raises awareness of the cultural considerations, religion and spirituality involved in the assessment of Muslim patients with mental health problems. The belief that Jinn spirits can cause mental illness in humans through affliction or possession is widely accepted among Muslims, meaning this belief is a crucial, but frequently overlooked, aspect of mental health problems with Muslim patients in psychiatric care. This book explores the nature of such beliefs, their relationship to mental health and the reasons for their importance in clinical practice.The book argues that it is vital to consider mental disorders as a multifactorial affair, in which spiritual, social, psychological and physical factors may all play a role. It suggests differential diagnostic skills may have an important part to play in offering help to those who believe their problems are caused by possession, and provides accessible literature on clinical issues and practice, interventions, management and evidence-based practice to help health workers achieve a better understanding of Muslim beliefs about possession and how to work with patients that hold such beliefs.Evil Eye, Jinn Possession, and Mental Health Issues is an essential manual for mental health professionals, social workers and psychologists.

This book provides an understanding of behavioural and substance disorders from an Islāmic 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. However, many Muslim with substance use disorder have been left to suffer in silence because addictive behaviours are considered taboo. Not only do feelings of guilt, shame, and a fear of being stigmatised and excluded from community prevent many from seeking therapeutic and spiritual interventions, there are also limited culturally sensitive service provisions offering help for Muslims with addictive behaviours. This book will synthesise the body of knowledge of the psychology of addiction from an Islāmic perspectives to foster awareness and understanding of addictive behaviours to break that stigma. It will also provide knowledge required to respond effectively to Muslim clients that psychotherapists and counsellors might encounter in their clinical practice, presenting a step-by-step application of Rassool’s Islāmic Psychotherapy Practice model in working with clients with addictive behaviours.This book will be a valuable read for Islāmic psychologists, psychotherapists, and counsellors, addiction researchers and specialists, and students in these fields.
