<p>Andalusian medicine, characterized by its holistic approach to healthcare, placed a unique emphasis on the interconnectedness of physical health, emotional well-being, and spiritual harmony. Eminent scholars, including physicians like Ibn Sina, Ibn al-Nafis, and Ibn Wafid, pioneered advancements in understanding mental disorders, the complexities of the human psyche, and the intricate relationship between the body and mind. One of the most enduring legacies of Andalusian contributions to mental health was the establishment of mental health hospitals, known as “maristanes.” These institutions, distinguished by their compassionate and patient-centred care, profoundly influenced the development of Western medicine, and laid the groundwork for the emergence of psychology as a scientific discipline. This paper goes through the intellectual tapestry of Andalusia during the historical era of Islamic governance, commonly known as the Andalusian Renaissance. Situated in the heart of the Iberian Peninsula, this period of remarkable intellectual convergence and cultural exchange is celebrated for its profound contributions to the field of mental health.</p>
