Blood Brothers #170: Exploring Marriage Therapy and Islamic Psychology in the British Muslim Community

Marriage Therapy, Islamic Psychology and British Muslims

Imam Abdullah 170

In this episode of the Blood Brothers Podcast, Dilly Hussain converses with a respected British scholar, counsellor, and chaplain, Imam Abdullah Hasan, delving into the intersections of marriage, therapy, and Islamic thought.

The discussion covers a range of topics, including:

  • The dynamics of Muslim marriages and how secular therapeutic practices contrast with traditional Islamic psychology.
  • Key challenges that often lead to marital breakdowns, such as financial disputes, family conflicts, and the gradual fading of romantic love.
  • Methods for addressing trauma, various mental health concerns, and the effects of mystical practices.
  • The balance that Muslims in Western societies strive for, weighing integration against assimilation.
  • The roles of political engagement, community outreach, and active participation in elections.
  • An exploration of identity and belonging, and the tension between a global Islamic community and loyalty to one’s country of birth.
