Muslims living in the United States show moderate openness to psychedelic therapies, and a weak negative correlation exists between their rejection of mental health services and their acceptance of psychedelics. Higher education is associated with more favorable attitudes toward both mental health services and psychedelic therapies. The findings highlight the need to understand educational and cultural factors shaping these views to advance equitable mental health care for this underrepresented group.
