Al-Ghazali and the Qur’an : One Book, Many Meanings

---

Al-Ghazālī and the Qur’ān: One book, many meanings is the first work to focus entirely on the Qur’anic interpretation of Abū al-Ghazālī (1058–1111), a towering figure of Sunni Islam. Martin Whittingham explores both al-Ghazālī’s hermeneutical methods and his interpretations of particular Qur’anic texts, and covers al-Ghazālī’s mystical, legal and theological concerns. The book is divided into two parts. Part I examines al-Ghazālī’s legal and Sufi theoretical discussions. Part II asks how these theories relate to his practice, analysing the only three of al-Ghazālī’s works which are centrally concerned with interpreting particular Qur’anic passages: Jawāhir al-Qur’ān (The Jewels of the Qur’an), al-mustaqim (The Correct Balance) and Mishkāt al-anwār (The Niche for Lights).

The book sets out systematically the nature of al-Ghazālī’s dependence in Mishkat al-anwār on Ibn Sīnā (Avicenna). In addition, it illuminates the complex interactions of al-Ghazālī’s mystical, legal and theological concerns. Tables are used to make as clear as

possible al-Ghazālī’s schemes of interpretation. Providing a new point of access to the works of al-Ghazālī, this book will be welcomed by scholars and students of Islamic studies, religious studies, hermeneutics and anyone interested in how Muslims understand the Qur’an.
