Imam Ghazali was born in 1058, Muslim theologian and mystic whose great work, Ahya Ulum Ud DIn (The Revival of the Religious Knowledge), made Ṣufism (Islamic mysticism) an acceptable part of orthodox Islam.
Imam Ghazali was born at Ṭus (near Meshed in eastern Iran) and was educated there, then in Jorjan, and finally at Nishapur, where his teacher was al-Juwayni, who earned the title of imam al-ḥaramayn (the imam of the two sacred cities of Mecca and Medina). After the latter’s death in 1085, al-Ghazālī was invited to go to the court of Niẓam al-Mulk, the powerful vizier of the Seljuq sultans. The vizier was so impressed by Imam Ghazali scholarship that in 1091 he appointed him chief professor in the Niẓamiyah college in Baghdad. While lecturing to more than 300 students, al-Ghazālī was also mastering and criticizing the Neoplatonist philosophies of al-Farabi and Avicenna. He passed through a spiritual crisis that rendered him physically incapable of lecturing for a time. In November 1095 he abandoned his career and left Baghdad on the pretext of going on pilgrimage to Mecca. Making arrangements for his family, he disposed of his wealth and adopted the life of a poor Sufi, or mystic. After some time in Damascus and Jerusalem, with a visit to Mecca in November 1096, al-Ghazālī settled in Tus, where Sufi disciples joined him in a virtually monastic communal life. In 1106 he was persuaded to return to teaching at the college at Nishapur. A consideration in this decision was that a “renewer” of the life of Islam was expected at the beginning of each century, and his friends argued that he was the “renewer” for the century beginning in September 1106. He continued lecturing in Nishapur at least until 1110, when he returned to Ṭūs, where he died the following year.

More than 400 works are ascribed to al-Ghazālī, but he probably did not write nearly so many. Frequently the same work is found with different titles in different manuscripts, but many of the numerous manuscripts have not yet been carefully examined. Several works have also been falsely ascribed to him, and others are of doubtful authenticity. At least 50 genuine works are extant.
