Introduction: a need of the book

Spirituality is an intangible aspect of human existence. It deals with an emotional intelligence and provides checks and balances in one’s life. Islamic spirituality has been found to have a positive impact on psychological well-being in several studies. In a study on Muslim women in the United States, Frazier and colleagues found that Islamic spirituality was associated with greater emotional regulation and resilience, which are important components of psychological well-being. Other studies have also shown that Islamic spirituality is associated with greater life satisfaction, self-esteem, and optimism. For instance, a study by Jafari, Farahani, and Abedi found that religiosity and Islamic spirituality were associated with higher levels of psychological well-being among Iranian university students. Similarly, another study by Tariq, Chaudhry, and Abbasi reported that Islamic spirituality was significantly associated with higher levels of psychological well-being among Pakistani university students.
