Therapeutic Cognition of Depression with Reliance on the Qur’ānic Lawful Doctrines

Journal Title: رهیافت‌هایی در علوم قرآن و حدیث - Year 2015, Vol 47, Issue 94

Abstract

The present article aims at drawing inferences from the holy verses of the Qur’ān that are useful in cognitive treatment of depression disorder. The lawful inference of these doctrines takes place on the basis of verbal contexts of speech such as emphatic words and conventional meaning of the words as well as allegorical interpretation (ta’wīl) of speech on the basis of the rule for the bipartite division and the Qur’ān through Qur’ān interpretation method, and in some instances, in proportion to traditions. The findings of this research are the lawful doctrines including “remembrance of God as the first barrier against the stream of negative thoughts”, “the prevalence and permanence of the ups and downs of life”, “feeling content by practicing the law of gratitude”, and “sadness, as requital for sadness”, that can be appropriate substitutes for depressing thoughts. The therapeutic approach in the interpretation of the Qur’ān and Qur’ān-centeredness of therapeutic doctrines is a novel memento in the fields of exegesis, clinical psychology, and consultation.
