Review

'I warmly recommend Winter's translation to everyone interested in Islamic eschatology and Islamic thought.' Annemarie Schimmel. 'This book is an excellent translation of a very important work...This translation and the series as a whole, are significant contributions to our understanding of this key figure in Islamic intellectual thought.' Oliver Leaman (BRISMES Bulletin). 'Winter's rendering combines exactness with fluency and dignity of style. The introduction, notes, appendix, bibliography, index - all make this an exemplary publication, produced to the highest standards.' Christian Troll (CSIC). 'Of considerable value and solace to many who will buy it for reasons both religious and academic.' H.T. Norris (SOAS).

Format:Paperback
Excellent, excellent book, this is a must have if u want to improve youur islamic knowledge, i would recommend this as a must have for all muslims..... it also is really good at erasing doubts over some sticky points of islam which some sects seem to have... e.g visiting graves and the blessings of visiting graves of the pious predecessors. Imam ghazzali is fantabulous as always and is definately the proof of islam as he proves everything beautifully. So excellent book for increasing ones iman, and excellent reminder of what we muslims should be doing regularly. The book is translated beautifully by Abdul Hakim Murad ( also known as T.J. Winter) though his cambridge university lecturer background seeps through as his english is of high standard and i would recommend having a dictionary at hand for the one or two of the words that might need to be looked up to aid complete understanding, but i would stress the book has no faults as far as i can see.. and finally if only he would translate the whole of the "ihya ulum uddin" that would be of great benefit to the muslims inshallah.

Brilliant 5 July 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Absolutely brilliant book for those who like ar-raqaaiq (heart melting narrations). Really focuses the Muslim on death and how much have we prepared by way of more good deeds than bad deeds.

Must read 14 Jun 2006
By M. Miah
Format:Paperback
This is written with an engaging urgency, is full of insight and illuminating analogies. Though not intended, Imam Ghazali's rank is evident, and one is left to wonder at the vast distance between such a person and the reader.

T.J. Winter's translation is beautiful and the thoroughness of his work makes this an item to admire.
