The Muslim Narcissist: An Islamic Guide to Understanding, Surviving and Healing from Narcissistic and Spiritual Abuse

The Muslim Narcissist: An Islamic Guide to Understanding, Surviving and Healing from Narcissistic and Spiritual Abuse Narcissism is a personality disorder that arises from deeply rooted childhood issues and an over-inflated ego, leading individuals to pursue harmful desires at the expense of their faith, morals, and the feelings of others. While psychologists and mental health experts have extensively studied narcissistic behaviour, knowledge about its Islamic context is limited. This book aims to address this gap by exploring the root causes of narcissism among Muslims and providing guidance on how to identify, avoid, and overcome it. In patriarchal societies, men with narcissistic tendencies are often associated, but women are increasingly displaying similar behaviours in their relationships. As a result, many individuals, particularly those from Muslim backgrounds, struggle to maintain healthy relationships with narcissistic partners. This book offers a unique perspective on the topic, drawing on the author's expertise as a British Muslim sociologist and counsellor. By understanding the distortions of Islamic teachings used to justify spiritual abuse and oppression, readers can protect their faith and well-being. By shedding light on the consequences of narcissistic abuse and providing practical advice for healing and recovery, this book provides a valuable resource for anyone affected by narcissistic and spiritual abuse in their personal or professional lives.
