Islamic Liberation Psychology is a thoughtful and groundbreaking guide to liberatory and decolonial thought. The book has a wide range of uses, from individuals seeking self-development, to community organizers, to change makers generally. Chapters explore liberation psychology from an Islamic perspective and use autoethnography to frame the theory and make it more relevant and applicable.
