Psychology: Recommended Reading

Praise be to Allaah.

If you are asking about the names of books on the field of Islamic psychology,
the answer is that unfortunately there are still very few modern books in this
field. There is a need for people who have studied the Qur’aan
and Sunnah, and who have an insight into and
practical experience of human psychology, as well as knowledge of the
experience and writings of non-Muslims in this field, to write about this
subject properly and produce useful work in this field. In any case, there are
a few modern books in this field, which include the following:
