This spiritual autobiography describes Imam Abu Hamid al-Ghazali's intellectual crisis; which led him to achieve direct knowledge of God. Among his most outstanding contributions to Muslim intellectual life were masterly defenses of Islamic orthodoxy; mysticism; and law; against the attacks of those who advocated purely legalistic; or entirely esoteric; readings of the religion. He hence articulated the Islam of the middle way; in balance between the extremes of the letter and the spirit. Also included in this volume are extensive translations from key works of al-Ghazali.
