Imam Ghazali’s Bidayah al-Hidayah is a highly motivational manual detailing the fundamentals of acquiring guidance through God-consciousness (taqwa).
Imam Ghazali argues that just as there is an end to this noble objective there is also a beginning to it, which must be made firm for one to achieve success. He then goes on to expound the fundamentals of this “beginning.”
While being concise and to-the-point the manual is laid out in the form of a detailed daily timetable providing the reader strong inspiration and much heart-rending counsel.
The three sections of this book are on obedience, refraining from disobedience, and the etiquette of companionship with the Creator and with creation.
One of Imām Ghazālī’s final works, it embodies a lifetime of learning, experience, and spirituality and can be taken as an introduction to his larger works.
Topics include:
- How to perform wudu’
- How to perform the ritual prayer
- Sins of the body (eye, ear, tongue, stomach, hands, feet) and how to avoid them
- Sins of the soul (envy, ostentation, conceit) and how to avoid them
- Methods of companionship with people
- How to choose the right friends
- Excellent ways of passing the time
- Manner of sleeping
- Manner of entering the lavatory
- and more…
