Birthdate unknown
Al-Ghazali (c. 1058 – 19 December 1111; ), full name Abū Ḥāmid Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad aṭ-Ṭūsiyy al-Ġazzālīy (),[a] and known in Persian-speaking countries as Imam Muhammad-i Ghazali (Persian:) or in Medieval Europe by the Latinized as Algazelus or Algazel, was a Persian polymath.[27][28][29][30][31] He is known as one of the most prominent and influential philosophers, theologians, jurists, logicians and mystics of Islam.[32][33][34]

Considered to be the Mujaddid (a renewer of the faith), of the 5th century[35][36] who, according to the prophetic hadith, appears once every 100 years to restore the faith of the Islamic Community.[37][38][39] His works were so highly acclaimed by his contemporaries that al-Ghazali was awarded the honorific title "Proof of Islam" (Hujjat al-Islām).[1]

Al-Ghazali believed that the Islamic spiritual tradition had become moribund and that the spiritual sciences taught by the first generation of Muslims had been forgotten.[40] This belief led him to write his magnum opus entitled Iḥyā’ ‘ulūm ad-dīn ("The Revival of the Religious Sciences").[41] Among his other works, the Tahāfut al-Falāsifa ("Incoherence of the Philosophers") is a landmark in the history of philosophy, as it advances the critique of Aristotelian science developed later in 14th-century Europe.[34]
