Islam's Soul Concept a Study

By Dr Ibrahim Ahmad

The concept of soul has been a subject of serious contemplation for

scholars, philosophers, theologians, and prophets since hoary past. In

religion and philosophy, the term 'soul' is used, in most comprehensive

sense, as a 'non-material' and immortal substance housed in the physical

body. In philosophy and religion, both East and West, the ultimate aim of

life is to know the true nature of the 'self, and then to become a part and

parcel of the divine. It is the essential principle of human nature, the basis

of conscious and continuous individual existence. It is often analyzed in

conjunction with such other terms as mind (nous), psyche, self and spirit.
