Abstract:   (481 Views)
Background: A review of the opinions of physicians such as Avicenna indicates that despite empirical methods and the diversity of experiences, the scientific results of Muslim physicians have not been far removed from monotheistic concepts and God-centered themes.
The texts of this renowned physician serve as a divine encyclopedia, providing a model for elucidating the God-seeking dimensions, which are considered the most important aspect of spiritual health.
Methods: This study, has been conducted using a descriptive approach and based on library resources, introduces the integration of Avicenna's medical research with theological texts as a model for examining the dimensions of spiritual health.
Results: A review of the medical writings of Avicenna revealed that during his clinical observations, he acknowledged God as the ultimate cause in the creation of humans and emphasized the purposeful nature of creation in the organs of the body. He highlighted the enduring connection between the medicine and a monotheistic worldview. This presents a valuable perspective on the pursuit of God that can elucidate an aspect of spiritual health.
Conclusion: The physician's divine insight in empirical researches, the praise and glorification of the Creator during treatment, and the devotional narratives during medicine addition to reflecting the heartfelt relationship between the physician and the Creator, it acknowledges that by connecting medical writings with monotheistic themes, not only it brings a sense of acceptance of divine obedience, but also an aspect of spiritual health can be elucidated.
