Al Ghazali: An Illustrated Biography

Imam al-Ghazali was born in 1058 and died in 1111. This illustrated book tells his life: his humble birth, his education and rise to fame, his spiritual crisis, his search for truth in Syria, Palestine and Makkah, and his return home.

Demi illustrated it, and Gray Henry and Muhammad Hozien are credited alongside her. The text is drawn from al-Ghazali's own account of his life, Deliverance from Error, and from other biographies. Fons Vitae publishes it as a hardcover, and it also serves as an introduction to the publisher's Ghazali series for adults and for children.
