Self Image Psychology expounds on some of the harmful messages promoted by the western media. The speaker points out how these common messages damage the Muslim's self-image psychology.
Among the many things discussed in this presentation are examples of proper self-respect and self-reverence from the lives of the Companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
The speaker mentions common acts that entail a lack of self-esteem — such as the changing of Muslim names to non-Muslim ones, and the alteration of Islamic identity more generally.
The very nature of this discussion reveals how Muslims today really view themselves. That is the uncomfortable part of the lecture, and the reason it is worth three CDs: the behaviors are so ordinary that nobody reads them as symptoms.
Because they were a small, poor, mocked minority for years, and nothing in their conduct suggests they thought of themselves that way. They did not adjust their names, their appearance or their speech to be more acceptable to the majority around them.
Setting that beside the present is the argument of the lecture, and it makes its point without having to state it.
Muslims living as a minority, and particularly young people navigating school and work. Also parents, who often encourage exactly the accommodations the lecture identifies.
