Qalb is seen as the isthmus (vide: Stoddart 1976) which connects the self

with Ruh (the spirit). It is that centre in which the consciousness of God
resides: the part of human being in which is felt the sense of Fitrah (what
is natural) and the inherent sense of right and wrong, and is held to be
capable of receiving inspiration.

Aql can be defined as the reasoning centre, intelligence, which ordinarily


comprehends and analyses external data and can articulate and according to
Al-Ghazali (ref.) connects directly with the Qalb.

Nafs can be best defined as “life force”. For psychological purposes, in


their lower form, they can be regarded as instinctual drives or energies
which have a semi-autonomous life of their own.

In themselves, the action of Nafs would operate according to Fitrah (as


with animals), but in human beings they are inherently vulnerable to
disruption resulting from, for instance, dysfunctional cognitions, and the
effects of emotional traumata, which pervert their operations.

In the ideal, healthy, balanced person, consciousness is centered


in Qalb which is open to Ruh and which directs Aql, and together
with Aql directs the lower Nafs.

In this state, Aql is able to exercise sound reason, its perception of the
external world is realistic, it sees the value of moral conduct, its operations
are imbued with wisdom, and it is able to exercise a wholesome direction on
the Nafs. The disrupting influences on the Nafs Ammara (the
lower Nafs) is weakened, and their tendency to wrong action countered by
the Nafs Lawwamma (the instinct to remorse). And from this state, the
self is capable of being transformed, even if only temporarily, into the Nafs
Mutmaina (the tranquil or rested Nafs), which could be described as the
state in which the self is in total surrender to the Qalb and completely
incorporated into the worship of God.
