What Does Islam Says About Mad People by ourema(op): 9:19pm On Nov 08, 2016
I have observed for some time that in where I live and work there are no moslem that are insane or mentally unbalanced. I have spent all my life in the Southern part of the nation. I have not visited the Northern part of Nigeria. The farthest I have been was Lagos.
So I want to know how moslem regard madness and why is it that all the moslem I have seen so far appear very sane.

LalasticlAlA you can now delete the thread. I have gotten the information I need. It is just that I have not seen any insane moslem. Thanks to all the moslem as well as other religions group that help to clarify the issue

"Mad" is a form of mental disorder in such a way that the person cannot do or say things properly, maybe rarely. Hence someone in that state of insanity does not have capacity to distinguish right and wrong or recognize consequences of his/her actions. Islam does not hold such people responsible until they return to normal. And if they should die in that state of insanity, their judgement lies with God.

The Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The Pen has been lifted from three: from the sleeper until he awakens, from the child until he reaches puberty and [size=16pt]from the insane person until he comes to his senses.”[/size] Narrated by Abu Dawood (4403).

@bolded how do you know there are no Muslims who are mentality unbalance? Have you talk to an insane person before or know his/her background?

Madness(insanity) is not immune to anybody, insanity is a disorder from the brain, a behavioral indifference towards societal.

Insanity comes with hallucinating, delusion, violence(not every insane person go violent tho, you will see them sane but they are mentality unbalance.)

In fact scientists believe all humans have personal mental disorder.

I don't really attach much on "spiritual attacks" to insanity.
