During the revival of Greek philosophy in the middle ages, many Christians
(Nazarenes) were attracted and persuaded by Greek logic. In an effort to protect
Christianity, Christian theologians relied upon the profound arguments of Al
Ghazali to defeat the adherents of Greek philosophy and thereby protected their
religion.
Al Ghazali's works have been translated and printed in many languages.
Comparative studies have shown that Jean Jacques Rousseau, known in the
west as the pioneer of children's education, based his ideas and methods upon
the work of Al Ghazali.
The Shorter Encyclopedia of Islam says of Al Ghazali: "He was the most original
thinker that Islam produced and its greatest theologian."
A.J. Arberry, professor and director of the Middle East Centre at the University of
Cambridge, England referred to Al Ghazali as follows: "He was one of the
greatest mystical theologians of Islam and indeed of all mankind."
