Faith in Divine Unity and Trust in Divine Providence: The Revival of the Religious Sciences Book XXXV - Paperback

by Imam Abu Hamid al-Ghazali (Author), Ghazzali (Author), Abu Hamid Muhammad Al-Ghazali (Author)

How can we trust in divine providence? Ghazali states that everything in creation is solely initiated and originated by God. If we truly believe that each created thing reflects God's majesty and beauty, then each event in our lives also reveals God's way of guiding us. Ghazali's judicious use of stories is intended to imitate the Sufi practice of master/disciple, where a novice is helped to discern how to act.
