The Ethics Of Al Ghazali – A Composite Ethics In Islam
THE ETHICS OF AL GHAZALI
This book on al-Ghazali’s ethics may be commended by those interested in the field. It is not, of course, a history of Islamic ethics, though it sets al-Ghazali in his historical context.
But it offers the most comprehensive account to date of the ethical thought of one of the leading Muslim writers, who combined in himself something from each of the traditional, the philosophical, and the Sufistic tendencies. It has also various special virtues.
It studiously avoids references to any of the numerous works ascribed to al-Ghazali whose authenticity has been doubted.
At the same time, however, the author has read widely in the generally accepted works, and has studied some seventeen of these in addition to the magisterial Ihya‘.
He is also familiar with contemporary ethical discussions in the West.
The ordinary reader in Europe and America finds al-Ghazali one of the easiest of Muslim writers to approach, mainly because of the openness and almost ’modern’ outlook of his autobiographical work, the Munqidh.
The clarity of his style and limpidity of his thought makes him a good author through whom to introduce Islamic ethics both to the West and to modern-minded Muslims.
