Al-Kindi, al-Fārābi, Ibn Sinā, al-Ghazāli and al-Rāzi were among the scholars that were engaged in the debate. Besides their discussion on the nature and inclination of the soul from the physical and spiritual view, the potential of the soul is also emphasized by them. From Islamic perspective, every human being needs to know the potential that exists in their soul so that they can utilize and take responsibility as a caliph in this world. Thus, this article highlights discussion on the potential of soul according to Ibn Sinā and al-Ghazāli based on their works. Among the issue highlighted on the potential of soul are the potential of plants, life and human. © 2019, University of Malaya. All rights reserved

Good spiritual health leads to good bodily health. In order to enjoy a long and prosperous life, these two parts must work together harmoniously. To have a healthy soul or spirituality means to have a strong spiritual component inside oneself. Due to its role as a centre of desires, the soul component is a driving force behind human bodily acts and behaviours.

Keimanan yang benar adalah berdasarkan kepada akidah dan pegangan yang jelas berpandukan sumber utama Islam iaitu al-Qur'an dan al-Sunnah. Surah Yasin yang merupakan qalb al-Qur'an sudah menjadi amalan dan rutin mingguan bagi majoriti umat Islam di Malaysia, namun pemahaman dan penghayatan tafsirnya tidak didalami dan diamalkan. Disamping itu, pelbagai isu pemikiran dan akidah bermain dalam kelompok masyarakat, sekali gus mewujudkan kebimbangan dikalangan agamawan dengan kewujudan pelbagai aliran pemikiran islam yang berusaha untuk mengelirukan kefahaman umat Islam terhadap pegangannya sendiri. Oleh itu, tujuan utama kajian ini dibahas adalah untuk mengenalpasti elemen-elemen akidah yang terdapat di dalam surah Yasin. Kajian ini telah menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan análisis tematik dan deskriptif, dapatan kajian ini akan memaparkan beberapa elemen akidah yang terdapat dalam surah Yasin yang dilihat mampu mengukuhkan akidah individu Muslim sekiranya dihayati dengan sebaiknya. Di antara elemen akidah yang diketengahkan ialah berkaitan perkara ilahiyyat, nubuwwat & sam'iyyat. Elemen tersebut dilihat mampu memberi kesedaran kepada individu muslim dalam merancang dan melakukan setiap tindakan di dunia ini agar sejajar dengan tuntutan Islam yang membuahkan ganjaran pahala di akhirat kelak.

Some streams or sects dispute this topic using the arguments of naqal (revelation), 'aql (reason), and the way to comprehend the unique Quranic verses. Among them are the Ahl Sunnah wal Jamaah sects of Ash'arites, Mu'tazilites, and others. Among the topics covered are divinity, prophethood, and sam'iyyat, which are supernatural elements that every Muslim must be aware of and believe in. Thus, this study will address one of the aspects of sam'iyyat that is concerned with the subject of paradise according to Imam Fakhr al-Din al-Razi, an important Ash'arite figure, based on his interpretation in his tafsir work, Mafatih al-Ghayb. Views on the issue from numerous different exegetes will also be discussed as a comparison to analyze the variances and similarities of their perspectives. In this article, certain viewpoints from other sects, especially Mu'tazilites, were also addressed to clarify the distinctions between Ash'arites. This study employed qualitative research using a content analysis approach. The data collected through a document analysis based on the problems faced and was analysed using a thematic descriptive method. The results showed that the paradise of reward for the believers has been created and it is located higher than the seventh stage of the sky. The rewards were referring to the bestowal of paradise and its enjoyments and the cause of human behavior to worship Allah Almighty, which is referred to as al-hidayah. The dwellers of the paradise can also see Allah Almighty in the hereafter through the sixth senses which will be given by Allah Almighty for the dwellers of the paradise.

In broad terms, the theory is found to be well supported by empirical evidence. Intentions to perform behaviors of different kinds can be predicted with high accuracy from attitudes toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control; and these intentions, together with perceptions of behavioral control, account for considerable variance in actual behavior with religiosity aspect. Attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control and religiosity are shown to be related to appropriate sets of salient behavioral, normative, and control beliefs about the behavior, but the exact nature of these relations is still uncertain. Expectancy. value formulations are found to be only partly successful in dealing with these relations. Optimal rescaling of expectancy and value mea...

But today's discussion on the discipline of psychology, which is dominated by western thinkers, does not imply to know the true nature of human beings as a result of the neglect of the spiritual aspect, and even unable to solve daily growing psychological problems.

Malah, ia juga turut dibahaskan oleh para ahli falsafah Muslim seperti Ibn SÊnÉ, al-GhazÉlÊ, al-RÉzÊ dan lain-lain yang bertepatan dengan worldview Islam. Mutakhir ini, perbahasan konsep insan menurut Barat yang hanya melihat insan dari aspek material semata-mata tanpa dikaitkan dengan agama lebih didedahkan kepada masyarakat. Konsep yang dibawa oleh Barat ini lebih menjurus kepada pengenalan berkaitan hakikat dan tabiat insan dari sudut fizikal tanpa melihat dari sudut spiritual. Artikel ini akan mengetengahkan penelitian awal beberapa persoalan berkaitan konsep insan menurut seorang sarjana Muslim yang juga dijolokkan sebagai ulama ensiklopedik iaitu Fakhr al-DÊn al-RÉzÊ menerusi karyanya KitÉb al-Nafs wa al-RËÍ wa SharÍ QuwÉhumÉ. Antara persoalan yang disentuh ialah mengenai definisi dan hakikat jiwa menurut al-RÉzÊ di mana beliau menjelaskan bahawa jiwa adalah suatu jawhar yang tersendiri dan ia berbeza dengan jasad. Selain itu, karya-karya beliau yang lain turut dirujuk bagi melihat kesinambungan pandangan beliau berkaitan isu tersebut.
