The Wisdom Of Imam Al Ghazali رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه
Whoever a door of goodness is opened for should hasten to enter it, for he does not know when it will close for him.[1]
O you who love Allah’s Messenger! The very fact that you are breathing is a door to goodness. A good thought in the heart, an invitation to a good deed, a moment of spiritual awakening- each is a door to goodness. Shake off your fears, stop searching for excuses, and step quickly through these doors.
Consider Imam al-Ghazālīرَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه . He too had children, a family, and responsibilities far greater than ours. He was widely celebrated and held in soaringly high regard. People from all walks of life came to him. Great scholars sought knowledge from him. He was the headteacher of one of the leading Islamic seminaries in that time.
The king of the Seljuk Empire pleaded with him, asking him not to leave, but he paid no heed to anything. With courage and trust in Allah Almighty, he left everything and went to Syria, choosing a life of seclusion. Allah Almighty bestowed mercy upon him, opening for him doors of closeness, and granted him the rank of wilāyah.
The highest station of sainthood is Ṣiddīqiyyat (utmost truthfulness), and Imam al-Ghazālī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was elevated to this rank.
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Imam al-Ghazālī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was a scholar of formidable rank. When he decided to walk the path of spirituality, he spent some time reflecting on this. He knew this path was challenging, and without the guidance of a murshid, taking this path successfully would be near impossible.
