Yassir Fazaga – Self-Image Psychology

About this lecture

In this lecture, Sheikh Yassir Fazaga explores the Islamic concept of self-image psychology, drawing on Quranic stories, the Seerah, and examples from history and modern life to show how a healthy sense of self-worth — rooted in one's relationship with Allah and contribution to humanity — is essential for personal dignity and social change. He examines how external forces, from media portrayals to systemic oppression, work to crush the human spirit, and how Islam calls every believer to reclaim their God-given honor and use it in service of others. The lecture concludes with a Q&A covering topics including Dawah, sincerity of intention, self-pity and repentance, and how to engage compassionately with those who fall short.
