Qur'anScience
At the height of his fame as professor of the Nizamiyyah in Baghdad, he asked himself: “For whom am I teaching?” Then he left everything for the sake of sincerity. The thirteenth book of Tracing the Scholars of Islam tells the story of Imam al-Ghazali, author of Ihya’ ‘Ulum ad-Din, from the Qur’an, authentic Hadith and the recognised books of biography — including an honest assessment of the Hadith in the Ihya’. “He has succeeded who purifies it.”
“He has succeeded who purifies it, and he has failed who instills it [with corruption].”
