description |
Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a
type of anxiety in which a person suffers from
obsessions i.e. unwanted intrusive ideas which
recur to the person persistently; and compulsions
i.e. behaviours that a person feels compelled
to perform repeatedly in a ritualistic manner
with the aim of relieving the anxiety from
the unpleasant obsessive thoughts. Although
compulsion and obsession are common, once
the individual experiences excessive discomfort,
then he or she would be diagnosed as a patient
of this disorder. Most of the research outputs
on this disorder are based on secular and
irreligious perspectives. Thus, this research
aims at religiously diagnosing its root causes
and exploring its remedies based the Qur’an and
Sunnah and the works of early Muslim scholars.
The finding shows that this disorder, its etiology
and treatment, has been extensively discussed
in many works of early Muslim scholars that
can be benefited by modern psychotherapists. |
