This book by Imam Abu Hamid al-Ghazali offers twenty four pieces of valuable advice to seekers of knowledge. It touches on all aspects of life, from material wealth and the love of this life, to Islamic etiquette and acquiring knowledge.

Imam al-Ghazali illustrates his ideas throughout with relevant quotations from the Quran and Hadith, as well as poetry and logical examples and clear analogies which demonstrates the need to cleanse ourselves of bad manners so that we can develop good characteristics.

This is certainly a powerful reminder of the importance of constantly identifying ourselves with the next life. This book is available in a paperback format with both Arabic and English text.

About the Author:
Imam al-Ghazali was born in 450 AH (1059 CE) in Tous. Shaykh Ahmed al-Razakani, a famous sufi scholar took care of him and educated him in fiqh and usul al-fiqh (principles of Islamic Jurisprudence).

During this period of his youth, Imam Ghazali had the opportunity to travel extensively. On one of his trips back to Tous, some thieves stole his books and manuscripts. From that day he began to memorize everything he wrote.

He lived in Nishapur and taught in the famous Nizamiyyah University in Baghdad (484 AH/ 1091 CE). He also lived in the Umayyad mosque and to this day there is a minaret named after him (Al-Ghazali minaret). He is the author of numerous books most notably the Ihya 'Ulum al-Din (a book on sufism and manners).

He died in the year 505 AH (1111 AD). He was fifty-five years old when he passed away and left behind a very valuable heritage and rich thought.
