Description

Al-Ghazālī's Path to Sufism and His Deliverance from Error is a remarkable personal document that offers insight into the life of one of Islamic civilization's most influential thinkers. This autobiography, translated by Richard Joseph McCarthy, recounts the author's education, intellectual crisis, and ultimate return to faith.

After years of doubt and searching, Al-Ghazālī experienced a profound illuminative experience, direct knowledge of God that transformed his understanding of the world and his place in it. This book provides a unique window into the Sufi tradition and its role in shaping Islamic thought.

With its clear and concise language, this annotated translation makes Al-Ghazālī's story accessible to readers interested in Islamic history, philosophy, or spirituality.
