The study offers an alternative approach to reading Shakespearean tragedies. It also aims to prove that English Studies or English Literature (Shakespearean Studies in Particular) can be Islamized. In this particular study, the widely accepted concept of 'tragic hero' is revised according to an Islamic framework and a reading of the three states of selves (or nafs) first mentioned in the Qur'an. The Islamic concept of 'tragic hero' is studied in comparison with concepts already accepted in the West, bringing in arguments from the Judaeo-Chrictian-Islamic traditions. This is yet another attempt of the study in finding a meeting point of the three 'Abrahamic religious' and in making Islam as a universal religion, which fits in any study, at any time, anywhere.
