[Trailer] The Quran & Human Psychology | Trauma | Nouman Ali Khan
Open in Hinto About this video
In a recent lecture that took place in Genk, Belgium, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan discussed human psychology in the light of the Quran, and the emotion he focused on was trauma. This is the first in a range of upcoming series which focus on human psychology from the an Islamic lens. Ustadh Nouman highlights the key differences between psychology frameworks pioneered by the likes of Freud and perpetuated today by “social media therapists”, and that which is present throughout the Quran. The former puts the individual at the center of the universe, whereas Islam recognizes Allah as the most important entity. In contrast with the Quran’s narrative, mainstream psychology and other theological frameworks will have you believe that you are permanently broken, that your family is a prison, and that “healing” means cutting everyone off in order to free yourself. Ustadh Nouman highlights how in fact, very real examples of trauma and feeling alone, unsupported, misunderstood and unheard, are already present in the Quran and were experienced by the Prophets themselves in their most extreme forms. How do we unpack these stories and recalibrate our understanding of these very real emotions? This lecture and our upcoming series aims to answer this question, and unpack every single human emotion mentioned in the Quran by providing real-life, relatable examples of how we can recognize and manage them in our lives today.. ------------------------------ 📚 Start your Quran journey at https://www.bayyinahtv.com 🎁 Sponsor a soul who seeks the Quran with a Bayyinah TV membership at https://bayyinah.com/gift

The thing I wish to talk to you about today is a very heavy subject. And that is human emotions in the Quran. >> In Freud psychology, all human beings start traumatized. The difference between us and the Christian creed is you're
broken and you will always be broken. With us, you can break and then you can fix again. And then you can break and you can what? Fix again.
And there's a lot of you know, social media content from professionals, non-professionals, people that want to become, you know, TikTok therapists, whatever, about how traumatic how toxic your mother is. And what a narcissist your brother is.
And what a what if what do you what do you do if you have a toxic family and an abusive family and a narcissistic family? What did they say? They said What did they say?
What are you wearing? Oh my god. You do you, queen. Right? So, you have this because they don't believe in the
idea of family that existed for centuries and centuries and centuries and every other society, but in Western society, family is a prison. And you have to free yourself from that prison. You have to free yourself from the trauma that was
given to you by your mom and your dad. You have to free yourself from that. You have to find you. Find you know, become yourself. Actually, I even met a parent today who said, "I'm
trying to talk to my son. He doesn't pray. He doesn't listen. I'm Allah is angry with me. I have failed And the moment she said that, I
remembered who? Your trauma is in the Quran. >> It was experienced by someone. It was experienced by Nuh. Maybe Allah is not happy with me because I wasn't
able to save my son. Maybe Allah is not happy with me because I wasn't able to save my spouse or my This is the same fear that Rasulullah had salallahu alayhi wasallam and Allah told him, "Fala allakum bakhiun nafsaka ala asarihim." >> Maybe you're
going to kill yourself in depression because you keep thinking that these people aren't listening and the effect of them not listening is killing you. Don't be Don't stop being sad over them. The prophet was told, "We are now these prophets and
we're understanding that what they experienced is not a small amount of trauma. It's It's an extreme form of trauma as a young man, as a child. >> Let's go to Lut alayhi salaam.
He's alone. He's frustrated. He has no Are these feelings when somebody's sitting in a therapy somewhere? >> Do you feel helpless?
Do you feel you don't have any support? Do you feel alone? Do you feel like nobody understands you? Do you feel like you're trying to communicate but the people on the other side keep getting angry and they
don't understand what you're trying to say, no matter how clearly you say it, you can't get across to them? Are these common experiences in people's lives? In Western psychology, you are the center of the universe. You are the most important character.
In the Quran, Allah is the most important entity. >> So, your healing is not coming from inside. It's coming from outside. It's coming from Allah.
