  • What words does Allah attribute to narcissists in the Quran? What traits do those words uncover, and what do those narcissists have in common? A powerful reflection from Ibn Al Qayyim (RA) on avoiding these terms and the tyranny they represent.

    If you are victim of a narcissist you are already a kind compassionate introspective good person as the narcissist recognised these qualities in you and preyed on them hence making you the victim. Only narcissistic abuse survivors know this. Narcissistic people rarely change their ways it's better for you to run!! Any abuse victims readimg this please realise you are a good decent person who deserves a spouse who values, loves, cherishes you and overlooks your flaws and focuses on your positive attributes and you naturally do the same. Trust in Allah and you WILL find peace Insha'Allah

    I am shocked that there is a video on Narcissism in the Islamic perspective. Narcissists are extremely detrimental to mental health. The trauma bond is one of the worst things one can experience (imagine knowing 100% that the person is evil but completely unable to leave them) and these things need to be talked more so people can gain the strength to recognize, get out of relationships and protect themselves from getting involved with another one in the future.

    • @samia6888
      @samia6888 Před rokem +18

      @EnchantedbyNunu that trauma bond is so strong, so powerful, that you are willing to take all the abuse in the world just so you don't feel those awful withdrawal symptoms of leaving the narcissist. It is truly agonizing. I pray to Allah to help those who are going through it because it could possibly be one of the toughest things to experience in this life.

He is my Waliyy; Protective friend, and Al Wadud; the Most Loving ❤ and yes I did want my Husband to change, I gave him so many chances, I tried to direct him to the right and tell him about this disorder.

Why I was always wrong and never right. Why I was always dumb and never worthy of making an intelligent decision. I let it all slide, because I was madly in love. I took all those accusations in jest.

      Your partner doesn't realise how blessed and lucky she was to have your unconditional love for her despite everything. As quaint as it sounds, all good things comes to an end when one is ungrateful and self entitled. Narcissism is very common amongst females for some reason, or maybe because they are not truly on the path of deen. They are selfish and self absorbed. Had one been on the path of deen you would possess compassion, empathy, love, mercy and understanding. Instead of being selfish and counting all that you can get for yourself and how you must win at all costs. Always. At the end, we can walk away to preserve our mental and physical well-being and ask Allah to grant these heart-diseased people hidayah.

    First imaam that has delivered a speech and awareness of Narcissism.
    Experts in psychology say that Narcissistic personality disorder is not curable but people can adjust their behaviour if involved in a relationship, friendship or business.
    Some narcissists are unaware of their condition and reject anything wrong with them whilst the aware ones know they have these traits but cannot but help themselves being like this.
    After studying over a period of time about this disorder, I know can recognise any traits that are within me as well as identify those with it.
    They most effective way to deal with Narcs is to abandon them but after trying to help them.
    They have very little emphathy and treat people like appliances. They get you to attach yourself emotionally with them but they have no genuine feelings for you.
    Avoid them

I have a few people I don’t feel comfortable sending this too, since they are suffering from PTSD from abusive relationships. Their partners would call them a narcissist and they believed it.

    @Chanmuoxambr Před rokem +23

    I completely agree with Mr Omar Suleiman to a certain extent but what we need to differentiate is narcissism and narcissistic personality disorder. We all, as Muslims, have to do an introspection work in ourselves and indeed identify whether we have narcissistic traits and how to deal with them, and I think it's completely reachable to people who are narcissists. However, for people who have a narcissistic personality disorder it's a complete different matter as one of the biggest traits they have is that their pathology prevents them from questioning themselves. They have this inability and they're not entitled and everything that happens to them is because someone led them to do such thing or react that way or even think that way. There isn't a problem with them and so they think the others are the problem. They even tend to twist the reality to the extent where the victim of narcissistic abuse thinks they are the narcissist. May Allah grant us knowledge and open our eyes to our drawbacks so we can become better human beings. Ameen.

    This topic of "Narcissism" is a very taboo topic. No one understand this disorder until someone experience it.
    Thanks to Sheikh who is opening this topic in the public. I've been searching this on the internet but I've never watched any ulamas or islamic motivators, Daaehs who acknowledges this type of disorder. It's either you have to be full of Sabar/patient or you have to disobey Allah. Yes indeed, dealing with someone with this type kf personality disorder is a test but I think with a support system approach, at least we can prevent ourselves or others to become like one. So still, we have to bring this topic to the the public. To raise awareness especially for every household cause most of the main causes and roots of this type of personality disorder mostly starts from the family upbringing.

    That would be because the person with NPD doesn't believe they have an issue, they believe their partner is the issue. They can own up(admit) to mistakes, but blame you. They never accept accountability which is to acknowledge your feelings because of their actions, which is where the deflecting and blame shifting comes in. They can even repackage things from blaming you to blaming you and them. They will never truly be vulnerable, because they want to avoid guilt and shame.

    The most disturbing part for me is that even someone who is praying and reciting Quran can be like this. The one that’s in my life made me feel that I was always inferior when it came to Islam, and I believed he was very humble and just. Over two decades later, I’m still trying to understand how he can act the way he does and still not understand that his character is quite ugly, especially as he has no love for our children and myself.
    Unfortunately I enabled his behaviour, I just thought it was his difficult childhood and that he needed to be looked after. Little did I know that he would so easily discard me for shiny new/old supply.

      For 28 years I have been suffering emotionally. mentally even physically due to very very high trait of my better half's narcissistic borderline disorder along with borderline disorder issues . I don't know how I m still holding on to this marriage for so long but this sort situation can destroy any one lives if he or she doesn't move on with out looking back .
      Even a shrink told me that I need treatment because a normal human being cannot sustain a relationship which is so toxic for so long and its all due to my very low self esteem.
      So I know for sure how painful to live with one who has such spiritual disease.

      As a mental health professional though, do you not think there's an over-estimation as to how many people are actually dealing with narcissists though? Only about 10% of men are narcissists and even less are women, yet it seems everyone in the comments and on Twitter has been in a relationship with one.
      Most people in the world are selfish. Confusing self-centeredness with narcissism is very common, please don't make this mistake as a mental health professional.

      @@helsharidy123 Are you quoting a research paper when you say 10% of the men are narcissistic? To the contrary, my understanding comes from 9 years of experience in this field with clients and colleagues who give me alarming numbers of people who come from families with a narcissistic parent. Self-centredness is the beginning of narcissism and it doesn't take long to get there when people are misguided. In fact, the thing looked down upon by Allah is Hasad (envy) and Iblis was the biggest example of a narcissist. If that was enough for Allah to banish him, then the debate of narcissism or self centredness doesn't hold good. I see this as one of the signs of Qiyamah where people don't care about their kin and cheat them. Hope this clears the air.

    Great topic but psychologically speaking, unfortunately narcissists cannot find fault in themselves or diagnose themselves it's always someone else who notices it, it's embedded into the nature that they cannot see faults within themselves and it's created because of their treatment by the primary caregivers as a child and by 16 the narcissist is created even if their traits start to show closer to adulthood and can never be cured unfortunately

    Narcissists don’t self reflect; the personality disorder means that they are right and everyone else is wrong.
    If you reflect and wish to better yourself, you may have narcissistic traits that you can heal and override but a narc will never heal because they don’t believe there’s anything wrong with them.
    And Allah knows best

    She thinks low of herself and targets people who she things are better or are a threat to the "image" she created of herself to others. Shes always the victim and soreads nasty rumours about me. Ive learned that her test is my test. How i respond and what i do really test my imaan. I want to go around and tell people shes sick and defend myself against the rumour she speads. But that wouldn't be right. I instead let people think what they hear and hope one day people see me as I am and that my sister finds inner peace.

    I understand your message sheikh but a clinical narcissist would never recognize themselves as such. That's what makes them a narcissist. They are not capable of true self-reflection as you are saying. You also can't tell a narcissist that they are one, hoping that they will say "ah you are right, I am a narcissist and I need to change". You can try but it will never go well. If a person does recognize themselves as having bad qualities then they were not a narcissist to begin with. But your message about self-reflection and general "bad qualities" still stands.

It’s really hard to contemplate these information from outside the teachings of our religion but Alhamdulillah this is a sigh of relief for me to hear from an Islamic perspective.

    The very reason why there was no one coming to the Sheikh suspecting themselves a narcissist, is because simply the definition of a narcissist is somebody who is self-centered, and doesn't see themselves having an issue 😅.
    Most probably people who came for help were the victims of narcissistic partners or family. Narcissists usually wouldn't seek a spiritual solutions to their life's problems.

    For e.g.
    1. I accept that I did it and it was wrong.
    2. I think you need to look at your thoughts.
    Here the two context and no. 1 Reflects introception and no. 2 reflects narcissism. Clearly when I statement is surrounded by more blaming it indicates narcissism.
