PHILOSOPHICAL SIDE QUEST: Al-Ghazali’s Spiritual Crisis
Abū Ḥāmid Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad al-Ṭūsiyy al-Ghazali, better known to posterity of Al-Ghazali, fits neatly between Avicenna, who died before he was born, and Averroes, who was born after he died, but al-Ghazali made a point of criticizing the use that Avicenna (and later Averroes) made of Greek philosophy. Al-Ghazali experienced a spiritual crisis as a result of being appointed to an influential position, and his response became a a touchstone of renewal in the Islamic world. His philosophical writings became a major influence in both Christian and Islamic civilization.
