- Description or summary of the audiobook: 'Al-Ghazali on Conduct in Travel' is a translation of the seventeenth book of the 'Revival of the Religious Sciences' (Ihya Ulum al-Din), which is widely regarded as the greatest work of Muslim spirituality. In 'Al-Ghazali on Conduct in Travel', Abu Hamid al-Ghazali uncovers, as elsewhere in the 'Revival', the mystical and religious dimension of one of humanity's most basic needs: in this instance, travel.-In Chapter One, Ghazali begins by providing the reader with the four reasons for travel, which include for the quest for knowledge and to flee from harm and danger. The advantages gained from travelling are also described by Ghazali-for example, the disciplining of the soul through exposure to the harsh conditions of travel as well as the acquisition of virtue and self-knowledge. Ghazali then explains what the seven proper conducts of travels-both outward conduct and inward conduct-consist of. In Chapter Two, Ghazali provides a practical chapter on the use of religious concessions while travelling, and concludes with a final chapter on how the traveller is to establish the proper direction and times for prayer. 'Al-Ghazali on Conduct in Travel' will be of interest to all those wishing to explore the disciplining qualities of everyday activities applied here to the spiritual dimension of travelling.-In this new edition, the Islamic Texts Society has included the translation of Abu Hamid al-Ghazali's own Introduction to the 'Revival of the Religious Sciences' which gives the reasons that caused him to write the work, the structure of the whole of the Revival and places each of the chapters in the context of the others.
