Abstract
In Iranian traditional medicine, maintaining both physical and mental health is paramount and treating illness is the physician's second task. Staying healthy, like getting sick, is the result of causes and factors to consider. These causes and factors are sometimes intrinsic to the body and sometimes related to the soul and metaphysics. It is very important to examine the opinions and knowledge of Muslim religious beliefs about psychological issues. Since traditional medicine is first preferred prevention and then cured, Muslim scientists have always emphasized these six principles with Quranic insights and Islamic traditions and beliefs. This medicine has placed the priority of mental health on the treatment of mental health in two categories: "Maintain a hygiene" and "science of treatment".
In other words, adherence to or failure to adhere to certain principles, called "Necessary Sixes", can cause health and illness in the body. The question now is, to what extent does the "Necessary Sixes" affect and prevent psychiatric disorders? According to the findings of this library-based research, six early factors related to the human psyche and the human souls were found to be very applicable and essential in the Islamic writings based on religious affirmations. Self-esteem and imagination are among the most important of these principles. These scholars have outperformed the Western world in bringing this idea up.
