Revival of any Islamic science is part of the revival of Islamic civilization and will pave the way for the revival of other sciences as well. But unlike other Islamic sciences, Islamic medicine has the distinction that despite all the efforts to wipe it out — many at the hands of Muslims themselves—it is still a living tradition, unlike physics and chemistry. Reviving it is thus easier.

There are things our physicians can do individually.
Our physicians need to recognize the great and unique opportunity that they have for doing good not only for the body but also for the soul of their patients. Doctors are in the best position to promote Islamic lifestyle, which is the best protection against the diseases brought on by our modern lifestyles.

The Sakina Center is a one-of-a-kind cyber-counseling service founded on the Islamic principles of humanity and understanding. We provide moral and spiritual support for Muslims in all circumstances. Our counselors are trained in the areas of counseling, social work, and psychology. The Sakina Center takes a unique approach in using Facebook as a counseling tool to carry out this social service. We counsel Muslims on all matters as they face many difficulties in today’s world ranging from anxiety to Islamophobia. Our target focus is Muslim youth residing in Western, non-Muslim countries where these services are lacking.

So, here’s a worrying fact I heard the other day: 1 in 6 people in the UK are depressed. Even more worrying is the amount of people that are being prescribed anti-depressant drugs, despite the evidence that they don’t work for everyone. I’m not just blaming doctors or the medical profession here. The public in general want a quick fix to their problems, and believe doctors can solve everything through giving them a “magic” pill. How may of these people have tried to sit down and work out the cause of their problems instead of relying on pills?
