Dr TK Harris, a lifelong friend and colleague of Mufti Menk, is an Oxford trained doctor who works to give strength of mind to people of faith. His Mental Health Access Mission, which funds this online project, is all about bringing high quality mental wellbeing knowledge to all the Ummah (Muslims of the world), or indeed anyone who recognises that spirituality is a powerful ally in living a happy life.
Your faith is in fact an aid to your mental health, not a barrier. Dr Harris, hailed as "Unique in his ability to marry medicine with faith" (Mufti Menk), and author of 7 books on the Islamic mind, reveals more powerful treatment techniques than ever before.
