Muslim religious reflection: implications for mental health care
Ms Hanan Dover

Access to Lectures | Speaker

Muslims in both Australia and Malaysia have shown that they can display religious maturity that can influence their thoughts, attitudes, and behaviours. These are a consequence of religious traditions. This has implications in terms of mental health as Muslims may maintain existing religious traditions, beliefs and practices to make informed decisions about their health and treatments.
