This book examines the philosophy of al-Ghazali, analysing his
conception of God within Islamic theology. Seeking to contribute to
the greater understanding of Muslim thought, it analyses his
'orthodox' theory, based on the notion that the spiritual struggle
(jihad) and philosophical enquiry are informed by the possession of
firm science ('ilm). Exploring a wide range of Arab texts and Arab
primary literature, this book therefore examines a crucial period
of Medieval Islamic history, whilst emphasizing the multifarious
and by no means monolithic components of the Muslim outlook. In
seeking to understand Islamic religion as a creative and
progressive heritage, it also demonstrates the moderate and
equilibrate character of mainstream Islam, and ultimately argues
that al-Ghazali's thought is the best expression of Islamic
intellectuality and spirituality. Taking a theoretical approach,
this book will be useful to students and scholars of Islamic
philosophy, theology and history.
