Majoriti sarjana Muslim yang prihatin dengan nasib komuniti Muslim (Ummah) telah terlibat secara mendalam dengan konsep Islamisasi ilmu pengetahuan yang mendapat momentum pada tahun 80-an sebagai hasil kesedaran global terhadap "kebangkitan Islam" pada tahun 70-an. Artikel ini melihat bagaimana kepercayaan, nilai, dan amalan budaya Islam mempengaruhi pemahaman mengenai kesihatan mental dan tingkah laku manusia. Perbincangan ini termasuk penerokaan mengenai impak prinsip-prinsip Islam terhadap kesejahteraan psikologi, seperti konsep Tawhid (keesaan Allah), Akhirah (hidup selepas mati), dan Qadar (takdir ilahi). Artikel ini juga membincangkan aspek praktikal penyatuan ajaran Islam dalam intervensi psikologi, menekankan peranan amalan Islam, termasuk solat, berpuasa, dan penglibatan komuniti, dalam meningkatkan kesejahteraan mental. Kepekaan budaya yang diperlukan dalam bekerja dengan populasi Muslim yang pelbagai ditekankan, kerana variasi wujud berdasarkan perbezaan kawasan, linguistik, dan budaya. Artikel ini membincangkan proses Islamisasi psikologi moden, di mana prinsip-prinsip Islam, nilai, dan konteks budaya berpadu dengan harmoni dengan kerangka psikologi kontemporari. Sebagai institusi pendidikan tertinggi, universiti dapat menyumbang peranan yang signifikan dalam meningkatkan proses Islamisasi psikologi moden yang akan menyokong usaha pembaharuan dan pembangunan ummah.
The majority of Muslim scholars concerned with the plight of the Muslim community (Ummah) have been deeply involved with the concept of Islamization of knowledge which gained momentum in the 80s as a result of the global consciousness for the "resurgence of Islam" in the 70s. It examines how Islamic beliefs, values, and cultural practices influence the understanding of mental health and human behavior. The discussion includes an exploration of the impact of Islamic principles on psychological well-being, such as concepts of Tawhid (oneness of God), Akhirah (the afterlife), and Qadar (divine predestination). This article also addresses the practical aspects of integrating Islamic teachings into psychological interventions, highlighting the role of Islamic practices, including prayer, fasting, and community engagement, in promoting mental well-being. The cultural sensitivity required in working with diverse Muslim populations is emphasized, as variations exist based on regional, linguistic, and cultural differences. This article discusses the process of the Islamization of modern psychology, where Islamic principles, values and cultural context harmoniously meld with the framework of contemporary psychology. As the highest educational institution, the universities can contribute a significant role toward enhancing the Islamization of modern psychology projects that would serve Islam and support the reform and development efforts of the ummah.
