This study compares and contrasts Imam al-Ghazali's (c.1055-1111) and Ibn Rushd's (c.1126-1198) views on the cognitive functions of the human soul and its role and effect on knowledge acquisition. The descriptive, analytical and synthetic approach was adopted which was mainly interpretative in the form of textual commentary. The five concepts of ilm (knowledge), ruh (spirit), nafs (soul), aql (intellect) and qalb (heart), were defined according to exegetists, theologians, jurists, lexicographers and philosophers. The study mainly focused on the external and internal senses of the human soul and noted some variations and similarities in al-Ghazali's and Ibn Rushd's perception of the cognitive functions of the human soul, in terms of their positioning and function in relation to the reception of intelligible forms and their relationship to the type of knowledge perceived. No special relation was noted on methodology since both scholars employed the same methodology in other areas of study. No significant relation and influence of cognitive functions of the human soul was noted on the classification of knowledge. The study views the cognitive functions of the human soul as an indispensable element of modern Muslim education curricula. The research advocates that whoever is involved in knowledge dissemination and seeking in modern curricula should be made aware of the role of the cognitive functions of the human soul, its role in knowledge acquisition and the type of knowledge acquired in order to seek or disseminate knowledge solely in quest of the pleasure of Allah (SWT).

This thesis seeks to study in depth the influence of al-Ghazäli's life, in particular his search for true knowledge, on his theories concerning the psychological dispositions of man, and attempts to clarify the distinctive contribution of his psychological ideas to an understanding of the human personality. The first chapter presents a discussion of al-Ghazäli's life against the background of the religious milieu of his time. The second chapter examines his al-Mungidh min al-dalil. The third chapter attempts to provide a general outline of al-Ghazäli's teachings and a summary of the approach he adopts in his magnum opus Ihya Hulum al-din. In the fourth chapter, an assessment is made of the theories of soul of three major Greek philosophers; Plato, Aristotle and Plotinus. This is followed by Islamic theories of soul: those found in the Qur'an, those of al-Färäbi and Ibn Sinä, and finally al-Ghazäli's theory of soul. The final chapter examines briefly al-Ghazäli's concept of happiness and attempts to analyse the spiritual dynamic inherent in al-Ghazäli's theory of the soul and how this is related to his views on the human personality. While much other research has been done on al-Ghazäli's ideas concerning the psychological dispositions of man, this study attempts to show by detailed argument that al-Ghazäli's psychology has distinctive features which declare his originality.

Islamic Psychology or ilm an-nafs (science of the soul) is an important introductory textbook drawing on the latest evidence in the sub-disciplines of psychology to provide a balanced and comprehensive view of human nature, behaviour and experience. Its foundation to develop theories about human nature is based upon the writings of the Qur'an, Sunna, Muslim scholars and contemporary research findings. Synthesising contemporary empirical psychology and Islamic psychology, this book is holistic in both nature and process and includes the physical, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions of human behaviour and experience. Through a broad and comprehensive scope, the book addresses three main areas: Context, perspectives and the clinical applications of applied psychology from an Islamic approach. This book is a core text on Islamic psychology for undergraduate and postgraduate students and those undertaking continuing professional development in Islamic psychology, psychotherapy and counselling. Beyond this, it is also a good supporting resource for teachers and lecturers in this field.

The spiritual life in Islam begins with riyadat al-nafs, the inner warfare against the ego. Distracted and polluted by worldliness, the lower self has a tendency to drag the human creature down into arrogance and vice. This translation of two chapters from The Revival of the Religious Sciences (Ihya' 'Ulum al-Din) details the sophisticated spiritual techniques adopted by classical Islam.

One of the great works of mystical religious literature, the Kimiya-i-Sa'adaat strove to bring man closer to understanding God by helping him understand himself. These excerpts from that work, by a strikingly original thinker on Islam who lived and wrote in the 11th century, were first published in 1910. They serve as a potent reminder of how powerful an influence Al-Ghazzali had upon religious philosophers of the Middle Ages, both Christian and Islamic. With its wise and warmly humanistic outlook, this little book may well foster a new measure of understanding in the current philosophical battle between the religious traditions of East and West. Also available from Cosimo Classics: Field's Shadows Cast Before and Jewish Legends of the Middle Ages. ABU HAMED MUHAMMAD IBN MUHAMMAD AL-GHAZZALI (1058-1111)was a Persian Islamic philosopher, theologian, psychologist, and mystic, known today as one of the most famous Sunni scholars in history, sometimes cited as next-in-importance only to Muhammad. Born in Tus, Al-Ghazzali was a pioneer of methodic doubt; his work The Incoherence of Philosophers shifted early Islamic philosophy from metaphysics to the theory of occasionalism, an Islamic doctrine that states cause-and-effect is controlled by God. He also succeeded in bringing orthodox Islam in contact with Sufism. The author of more than 70 books on various subjects, his influence continues to stretch far and wide even today.

Al-Ghazālī (d. 505/1111) is one of the most influential thinkers of Islam. There is hardly a genre of Islamic literature where he is not regarded as a major authority. Islamic Law, Sufism, ethics, philosophy, and theology are all deeply shaped by him. Yet in the past thirty years, the field of Ghazālī-studies has been shaken by the realization that Avicenna (Ibn Sīnā, d. 428/1037) and other philosophers had a strong influence on him. Now, after the 900th anniversary at his death, the field emerges stronger than ever. This second volume of Islam and Rationality: The Impact of al-Ghazālī brings together twelve leading experts on al-Ghazālī who write about his thought and the impact it had on later Muslim thinkers. Contributors are: Anna Ayşe Akasoy, Ahmed El Shamsy, Kenneth Garden, Frank Griffel, Jules Janssens, Damien Janos, Taneli Kukkonen, Stephen Ogden, M. Sait Özervarlı, Martin Riexinger, Ulrich Rudolph, and Ayman Shihadeh.
