The concept of the Ibadah Friendly Hospital (IFH) integrates Islamic principles into healthcare, ensuring that patients’ spiritual needs—such as guidance on prayer, ablution, fasting, and other acts of worship—are taken into consideration alongside medical ethics and regulations.
The Academy is a registered training provider under the Human Resource Development Corporation (HRD Corp/PSMB). Its trainers are highly experienced in developing and implementing the Ibadah Friendly Hospital model.
The awareness of meeting patients’ spiritual needs has driven Al-Islam Specialist Hospital and the Academy of Ibadah Friendly Hospital to introduce Chaplaincy practices, which have long been implemented in Western countries.
In Malaysia, religious visits to patients or volunteer support during end-of-life moments have existed but without proper training or guidelines. Since 2014, the Chaplaincy program has been adapted and tailored to align with Islamic principles and practices, ensuring that patients and families receive appropriate emotional and spiritual support.
At Al-Islam Specialist Hospital, our Islamic chaplaincy services provide compassionate spiritual care and emotional support to patients, families, and healthcare staff during times of illness, uncertainty, and healing. Our trained Muslim chaplains offer holistic care that honors both faith and medical treatment, ensuring every person receives dignified, culturally sensitive support when they need it most.
Our chaplains serve as a vital bridge between clinical care and spiritual wellness, working alongside doctors, nurses, and social workers to provide complete, patient-centered care. We recognize that healing encompasses body, mind, and soul. Whether arranging prayer space, offering a calm presence during anxiety, or providing Islamic guidance on medical matters, our chaplaincy team ensures every patient’s dignity and beliefs are honored.
