Abstract

Online game addiction has been categorized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a mental health problem. This article identified an Islamic psychospiritual approach as an alternative to holistic therapy to solve this problem. The study uses qualitative methods through interviews with seven experts consisting of psychiatrists, counselors, and lecturers from several universities in Malaysia. Thematic analysis is used to identify the symptoms, effects, and factors of addiction as well as Islamic psychospiritual solutions. The findings show various effects and contributing factors to the problems and identified solutions by experts using the Islamic psychospiritual approach to reduce the problem.
