His numerous works are well known, respected, and quoted not only in the Middle East but in the
higher
universities of the West. His contribution to theology and philosophy have proved to be major
cornerstones
of academic research throughout the centuries.

the profound
arguments of Al Ghazali to defeat the adherents of Greek philosophy and thereby protected their
religion.
