In 1095, the most famous scholar in the Islamic world could not speak. Al-Ghazali had mastered theology, law, and philosophy, yet standing before thousands in Baghdad, his tongue failed and his body refused food. This three-hour exploration follows his extraordinary journey from orphan in Persia to the heights of medieval intellectual life, through complete psychological collapse, to eleven years wandering as a seeker through Damascus, Jerusalem, and Mecca.
We examine his devastating critique of the philosophers, his analysis of pride, envy, and the diseases that corrupt the human heart, and his transformation of Islamic spirituality through The Revival of the Religious Sciences. His arguments about reason and certainty anticipated David Hume by six centuries and influenced thinkers from Maimonides to Thomas Aquinas.
