All praises to Allah.
Ghazhali looked into his contemporary social conditions and drew reasons to come up with such a book - revival of the religion.
He criticizes the then scholars who should have been the inheritors of prophets. Criticized about the monetary line they took.
Knowledge had been considered to be one of the three things - Fatwa made by judge, the expertise in logical reasoning in-order to sideline an opponent and the command in elocution.
In his book, Ghazhali wanted to explain about the true knowledge.
The contents of the book are worship practices, ethics and etiquette, reasons for the self destruction and the ways to survive from it. He will explain about "ilmul-muamala", but forbidden to reveal "ilmul-mukaashafa". "Ilmul muamala" is all about knowledge and its practice.

ilm means knowledge.
ReplyDeleteilumul muamala is 4 types. Related to physical and spiritual + praiseworthy and ungrateful.
ilmul mukashafa is the reality of knowledge.
"the ways to survive from it" - salvation
More about Ilmul muamala:
ReplyDeleteIlmul muamala -> LLahir and Baathin
LLahir = effort made by human body
Baathin = Things happening in the heart
LLaahir -> Prayers + Rituals
Baathin -> mahmood (praisworthy) + madhmoom (ungrateful)
