Paper written for a workshop at the Kulluyah of Medicine International Islamic University Kuantan Malaysia on 11th September 2006 by Professor Omar Hasan Kasule Sr.

Abstract

Medical treatment plays a very important role in protection of the mind. Treatment of physical illnesses removes stress that affects the mental state. Treatment of neuroses and psychoses restores intellectual and emotional functions. Medical treatment of alcohol and drug abuse prevents deterioration of the intellect.
