[al-Munqidh mina 'd-Dalal],
[A5] Paperback - 65 pages,
by Abu Hamid Muhammad al-Ghazali.
Translated by Shaykh Muhtar Holland,
Published by Al-Baz, USA.





Description :

This is the 'spiritual autobiography' of the great Imam al-Ghazali, may Allah be pleased with him, and describes what caused him to leave fame and fortune to undertake the spiritual path of the Sufi's.

 
In it, besides providing a personal history and describing the key events which led to this and flowed from it, Imam al-Ghazali, may Allah be pleased with him, takes time to repudiate the methods and logic of the philosophers and the esoterics (batiniyya) and the principles of sophistry.

 
Lastly he provides a section on the Reality of Prophethood and the urgent need all people have for it. This is a book that contains much of value to the genuine seeker of Truth.
