Über dieses E-Book

The story of this book clearly shows the great need of Muslims for a reference that guides them in Islamically preventing HIV/AIDS after the failure of the secular Western model of condoms and clean syringes. Its first edition was published in 1997.  It was widely distributed and quickly sold out by Barnes & Noble that gave it the highest 5-star rating of bookselling. Its second and third editions were published by the Islamic Medical Association of South Africa that conferred upon it the award of the best contribution to Islamic Medicine for the year 2000. In Sudan, it received the Shahid Zubair Prize in the year 2004. This is the highest award for academic excellence. The book soon achieved an international status and Muslims scholars realized the need for its translation. The book is now published in Arabic by the International African University in Sudan, in Bosnian by el-Kalem publishers in Sarajevo, in Russian by the International Institute of Islamic Thought and in the press in Swahili, the language of East African. Though it discusses in depth medical, cultural, philosophical and Islamic issues, its language is accessible to laymen.

Autoren-Profil

The author of this book is often referred to as the pioneer of the Islamization of psychology. His famous paper “Muslim Psychologists in the Lizard’s Hole,” read at the 1976 Annual Conference of the Association of Muslim Social Scientists in Indianapolis, USA, and his best selling book, The Dilemma of Muslim Psychologists, published in London in 1978, have inspired many to refuse to uncritically accept Western psychological theories and practices and to revise them according to the Islamic worldview. The dilemma was reprinted many times and has been translated into Arabic, Turkish, Malay and Indonesian.

Born in Sudan in 1932, Professor Malik Badri received his BA. (with distinction) and his M. A. from the American University of Beirut and his Ph.D. from the University of Leicester, England.

He has been a Clinical Fellow of the Behaviour Therapy and Research Society founded by J. Wolpe since 1985, and is currently Professor of Psychology at ISTAC in Kuala Lumpur.

Professor Badri founded a number of counselling centres, psychological clinics and departments of psychology in various universities in the Middle East and Africa. He is Honorary and Founding President of the Sudanese Psychological Society and President of the International Association of Muslim Psychologists.
