Join us for the screening of a documentary on the life of Imam Al-Ghazzali, with commentary and discussion led by Imam Afroz Ali.

Born in 1058 in Tus, Khorasan, in present-day Iran, Abu Hamid Al-Ghazzali was one of the most original thinkers the world has known. Besides being a major influence in the Muslim world, the West has also felt his effect. He influenced major figures of medieval philosophy such as Thomas Aquinas and Moses Maimonides, who shaped the philosophy of the Latin West. As the author of some 250 books on topics ranging from theology and ethics to metaphysics and philosophy, Al-Ghazzali came to be known as ‘Proof of Islam’. For almost a thousand years he has served as an inspiration for spiritual seekers everywhere as he was someone, like the Buddha, willing to give up everything: wealth, position, family and comfort in order to search for Truth.
