What if the foundations of modern psychology were laid not in the 19th century — but in the golden age of Islam?
Meet Abu Zayd al-Balkhi, a 9th-century Muslim scholar from Afghanistan, who pioneered concepts of mental health, cognitive therapy, and psychosomatic illness — long before Freud or modern psychology.
In this video, we explore his groundbreaking book Sustenance for Bodies and Souls, how he diagnosed depression and anxiety, and how he balanced spiritual wisdom with scientific insight. His work normalized mental illness, advocated therapy and music for healing, and even matches modern DSM descriptions of OCD.
Watch till the end to discover why Al-Balkhi is called the father of Islamic psychology, and why his legacy matters more than ever today.
