![]() In the Book of Knowledge, we were able to create stories which could best explain Imam al-Ghazali’s ideas to children. His metaphor for polishing the heart makes it very easy for us to imagine the process of self observation and correction. The Imam uses the image of small plants which grow in our hearts into magnificent trees to illustrate how doing beautiful deeds will nourish inner growth and later produce beautiful fruits. The Ant and The Pen, for example, is a story which tries to help explain how God knows and plans everything which will happen to us. Imam al-Ghazali used many metaphors and imaginary tales to best illustrate very profound concepts and ideas. This is a part of an educational series that contains books, workbooks and a curriculum. This book is 54 pages in length and contains colored illustrations. This book is a part of the Ghazali Children’s Project Book Set. ![]() ![]() ![]() Title: Al-Ghazali The Book of Belief for Children ![]()
