Kimyâ-yı Saâdet (The Alchemy of Happiness) - Paul Ferguson - 10-18-2025
"Kimyâ-yı Saâdet (The Alchemy of Happiness), written by Imam al-Ghazālī, is a condensed and simplified adaptation of his magnum opus Ihyā’ ‘Ulūm al-Dīn. The work explains the fundamental moral and religious principles necessary for attaining spiritual maturity. Topics such as self-knowledge, purification of the soul, articles of faith, the significance of worship, belief in the hereafter, states of the heart and soul, repentance, and spiritual cleansing are discussed in depth. Al-Ghazālī emphasizes that both worldly and eternal happiness can only be achieved through a life centered on divine consent."
