Quran Cordoba - The source of human inner disease not only has the potential to face physical weakness, but also continues to undermine its soul and spirituality. In an Islamic perspective, inner disease is the root of many psychological problems and life imbalances.

The Qur'an has given a signal about the human inner condition that can be the cause of weak relationship with God, spiritual illness, losing identity as His servants, forgetting others, even yourself. Incorporated jealousy, envy, riya, ujub, takabur, hypocritical and other liver diseases.

‍

فِيْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌۙ فَزَادَهُمُ اللّٰهُ مَرَضًاۚ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِيْمٌ ەۙ بِمَا كَانُوْا

" In their hearts there is a disease, then God adds to the disease; and they get a painful punishment, because they lie ." (Surah Al-Baqarah: 10)

The following are 10 human inner diseases according to the Qur'an and their relevance to mental and mental health according to Islamic spirituality:

‍

1.     The love of the world is excessive and forgetting the hereafter

كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّوْنَ الْعَاجِلَةَۙ وَتَذَرُوْنَ الْاٰخِرَةَۗ

"No! Even you love the life of the world, and ignore (life) afterlife." (Surah Al-Qiyamah: 20-21)

Excessive love for the world can cause anxiety, jealousy, and lose the direction of life. In psychology, this is known as materialistic value orientation which can reduce the peace of mind and psychological well -being.

2. Attitude to refute and stubborn

وَكَانَ الْاِنْسَانُ اَكْثَsp

"... but humans are indeed the most arguing." (Surah Al-Kahfi: 54)

Stubborn attitude and reject advice can be a sign of high ego disorder. This can inhibit the process of self -reflection and spiritual growth. This rebuttal comes from arrogance and his passions.

‍

3. The tendency to act

بَلْ يُرِيْدُ الْاِنْسَانُ لِيَفْجُرَ اَمَامَهٗۚ

"But humans want to make immorality continuously." (Surah Al-Qiyamah: 5)

Addictive behavior against sin is often the escape of the inner purity. In psychotherapy, this condition is similar to negative coping mechanism False in the search for happiness of his life.

So, spiritual happiness, sincere worship reaching God's pleasure, congratulations in religion in the world and the hereafter is a solution to stay away from disobedience.  

4. Zalim and exceed the limit

اِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ لَظَلُوْمٌ كَفَّارٌ ࣖ

"Really, humans are very wrongdoing and very denying (the blessings of God)." (Surah Ibrahim: 34)

Zalim means not putting something in its place, both to yourself, others, or God. This can cause prolonged inner conflict.

5. Hashed and impulsive

خُلِقَ الْاِنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلۗ سَاُورِيْكُمْ اٰيٰتِيْ ف stay

Meaning: " Humans are created (are) in a hurry. I will show you my signs (power) .

Rust is closely related to anxiety and lack of peace of mind. In psychology it is referred to as low frustration tolerance , conditions in which individuals find it difficult to be patient with the process. Many dhikr and remember God will make the soul calm and not impulsive.

6. Pingy and easy to complain

وَكَانَ الْاِنْسَانُ قَتُوْرًا

"And humans are indeed very stingy." (Surah Al-Isra: 100)

اِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ خُلِقَ هلُوْعًاۙ

"Really, humans are created to complain." (Surah Al-Ma'arij: 19)

Thinking and complaints are a form of resistance to destiny and lack of gratitude. This inner disease can lead to symptoms of neuroticism in psychology, namely the tendency to experience negative emotions. The solution is certainly must always be positive with the destiny that occurs.

7. Detaned the blessings of Allah

وَاِنَّآ اِذَآ اَذَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنَّا رَحْمَةً فَرِحَ بِهَا ۚ ?? اَيْدِيْهِمْ فَاِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ كَفُوْرٌ

"And really, if we feel to humans a mercy from us, he welcomes him happily; but if they are overwhelmed with the actions of their own hands (surely they disbursed), truly, humans are very fed (to favors). (QS. Asy-Syura 48)

Dissatisfaction and forgetting to be grateful can be an entrance to psychic diseases such as mild depression or stress. Islamic spirituality emphasizes the importance of gratitude as a balancing of the soul. O human be careful, that's the commemoration of the verse,

"... Really, humans are very broken (to favors)."

8. Forgotten and exceed the limits

وَلَا تَكُوْنُوْا كَالَّذِيْنَ نَسُوا اللّٰهَ فَاَنْسٰىهُمْ اَنْفُسَهُkey

" And do not be like those who forget God, so God makes them forget themselves. They are wicked people ." (Surah Al-Hasyr: 19)

كَلَّآ اِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ لَيَطْغٰىٓ ۙ

 "Really, humans really go beyond the limits." (Surah Al-Alaq: 6)

Negligent towards God's blessings and feel that it does not need guidance is a form of inner arrogance. In spiritual psychology, this is a condition of the heart that is closed from the divine light.

9. Despair and pessimistic

وَلَىِٕنْ اَذَقْنَا الْاِنْسَانَ مِنَّا رَحْمَةً ثُمَّ نَزَعurb

Meaning: " And if we give our grace to humans, then (that grace) we revoke again, surely he becomes hopeless and not grateful ." (QS. Hud 9)

Despair is a serious inner disease that can lead to severe mental disorders. In Islam, Husnuzan (prejudice both to God) and optimism is the therapy of the heart taught to fight despair.

10. Detroach of the Qur'an and hate it

وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَا لِلنَّاسِ ف above

Meaning: " And really, we have explained repeatedly to humans in this Qur'an with a variety of parables, but most humans do not like it even deny (Him ). (QS. Al-Isra: 89)

Ignoring the instructions of the Qur'an means letting the soul lose direction. Break the scriptures, a sign of heart death. In the spiritual concept of well-being , the Qur'an is the main source of meaningful life orientation.

Inner disease in the Qur'an is not only religious warnings, but also psychological guidelines. By knowing and overcoming these 10 mental diseases, we can build stronger mental and spiritual health.

Islam has given therapy for the heart: dhikr, gratitude, trust, patience, and love that is straight to God. With the wisdom of worship, the health of body and spirituals which is a pillar of a healthy lifestyle in the style of the Prophet.

As in the Hadith of the Prophet ﷺ: "Know, in the body there is a lump of flesh. If it is good, then okay the whole body. If it is damaged, then the whole body is damaged. Know, it is the heart." (HR. Bukhari and Muslim)

May Allah take care of our hearts and souls from misleading inner illness. Amen!
