Psychological Health and Women: Insights and Approaches from an Islamic Perspective
Thursday, September 26, 2024
This panel addresses the disproportionate impact of conflict, climate change, and demographic shifts on Muslim women’s mental well-being, issues often overlooked due to cultural misconceptions framing mental health as a “Western” concern. Referencing Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) recognition of grief, experts will explore the historical context of Prophetic and Islamic psychological practices and discuss today’s mental health challenges faced by Muslim women. Through the lens of Islamic psychology, panelists will offer insights into prevalent mental health issues and data-driven solutions rooted in faith and science, especially for Muslim women impacted by conflict.
