It explores complex interactions of religion with health as a source of coping as well as stigma and denial, particularly as Islam plays a central role in Malaysian culture, politics, and policy. At the heart of the book, a groundbreaking study analyzes attitudes and behaviors toward prevention among diverse people living with HIV, faith leaders, and government health officials. From these findings, readers gain insight into how health professionals, policymakers, and organizations can create appropriate prevention programs in Malaysia, with implications for other Muslim countries. This timely volume: Situates Malaysia and the Asian Pacific region in the context of the HIV epidemic. Analyzes ways Islamic beliefs can shape perceptions of HIV and prevention policy. Reviews a unique study of stakeholder opinions and practices regarding HIV. Discusses the consequences of Islamic rulings on sex outside marriage. Offers recommendations for effective HIV prevention practice and policy. Islam and Health Policies Related to HIV Prevention in Malaysia is of immediate relevance to researchers studying HIV prevention, social aspects of religion, sexuality, and sex education. Policymakers in health promotion and health education as well as graduate students in sex education, sociology, psychology, and cultural studies should also find it useful. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Public Health,$x2192-3698 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aHealth?Religious aspects 606 $aMedical policy 606 $aIslam 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27010 606 $aReligion and Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A8010 606 $aHealth Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27040 606 $aIslam$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A5000 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 0$aHealth?Religious aspects. 615 0$aMedical policy. 615 0$aIslam. 615 14$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 615 24$aReligion and Health. 615 24$aHealth Policy. 615 24$aIslam. 676 $a616.97920096623 700 $aBarmania$b Sima$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0787609 702 $aReiss$b Michael J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300458003321 996 $aIslam and Health Policies Related to HIV Prevention in Malaysia$92200068 997 $aUNINA
