Abstract
This book aims to address issues related to gender dysphoria from an Islamic perspective. The issues were discussed from religious, medical and human sciences points of view. This is because in Islam, there is no separation between science and religion. Therefore, the authors in this first volume of the book are from medical, human sciences as well as the Islamic revealed knowledge fields. The views from Islamic revealed knowledge and human sciences are necessary to balance the perspectives made by the medical experts, as we believe it is not enough to address the issue only from modern medical science alone (it is worth to mention that some of the research findings from the medical science have been presented in “Gender Dysphoria, Issues and Solutions”). To solve the issue, we need a more comprehensive view of the matter. Hence, we bring authors not only from medicine but also from sociology, psychiatry, and Islamic legal codes to discuss gender dysphoria academically as a response to the secular non- Islamic arguments on the problem. We are very concerned about the social ills involving lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender groups (LGBT). With continuous support from Professor Emeritus Tan Sri Dato’ Dzulkifli Abdul Razak (the 6th IIUM rector), it is hoped that the act of normalising the LGBT lifestyle will be curbed, not only in the IIUM campus but even throughout Malaysia and the whole world
