Islam and Happiness
Session 2 of Islam and Happiness with Dr. Roslan Abd. Jelani, Senior Research Fellow at RZS-CASIS, UTM.
The current psychological climate limits the understanding of happiness to be only within the temporal and secular. This modern conception marshals virtue, the self, and ikhtiyār to instead serve the tragic spirit. In two of his seminal monographs (Islam: The Conception of Religion and the Foundation of Ethics and Morality & Meaning and Experience of Happiness in Islam), Prof. Al-Attas strives to remedy this corruption by rerooting the notion of happiness as sa'adah within the true standard of submission, which is Islam. This upcoming session, delivered by Dr Roslan, shall combine these works in expounding the notion and how it ties to man's ultimate destiny.

Some Reflections on Al-Attas' Great Works
“Since Islām is the religion which transcends the influence of human ‘evolution’ and historicity, the values embodied in it are absolute; and this means that Islām has its own absolute vision of God, of the Universe, of Reality, of Man; its own ontological, cosmological, psychological interpretation of reality; its own worldview and vision of the Hereafter having a final significance for mankind.” - Professor Al-Attas
Muhammad ﷺ: The Seal of Prophets
Muhammad ﷺ: The Seal of Prophets
with Dr. Roslan Abd. Jelani
“There is only one revealed religion. It was the religion conveyed by all the earlier Prophets, who were sent to preach the message of the revelation to their own people in accordance with the wisdom and justice of the Divine plan to prepare the peoples of the world for reception of the religion in its ultimate and consummate form as a Universal Religion at the hands of the last Prophet, who was sent to convey the message of the revelation not only to his own people, but to mankind as a whole”. - Prof. Al-Attas
