Product description

The book analyzes / the cognitive order of Al-Ghazali between the readings of Al-Jabri and Taha Abdul Rahman, by the author / Belkacem Al-Qasimi, two contrasting readings of Islamic heritage through the personality of Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali. It compares the methodology of Muhammad Abed Al-Jabri's fragmentary and deductive approach with Taha Abdul Rahman's integrative and holistic approach. It highlights the role of Al-Ghazali as the founder of methodological doubt and the first to pose the epistemological question (what, why, how) in scholarly Islamic culture, which sparked a revolution in reconstructing the prevailing cognitive system. The book falls within an attempt to delve into the Arab mind to diagnose its civilizational crisis.
