Ghazali

Ghazali, Abu Mahomed Al (1058-1111), a noted Moslem theologian, was born at Khorasan, and became professor of theology in the University of Bagdad. He afterwards went to Mecca, and then lectured at Damascus, Jerusalem, and Alexandria. He then returned to his native town, Tus, where he founded a Sufic College, and spent the remainder of his life in contemplation. He opposed the Arabic school of philosophers, and wrote among other works a commentary on the 99 names of God.
