Sumario: | This paper seeks to advance an understanding of Human Nature
through Islamic Sources. The paper also seeks to adopt a self-consciously
comparative approach to psychology, comparing Islamic perspective
with Western views. The author explores Islamic views on the
three dimensions of psychology - the spiritual, the physiological and
the behavioral. The paper concludes by emphasizing the need for a
theoretical basis to define the psychological vision of human nature and
to identify the subject matter of psychology within Islamic framework.
Psychology cannot be separated from religious, philosophical and
moral issues, the paper insists, therefore it is important that they be integrated
in the efforts to articulate Islamic psychology.
