The Alchemy of Happiness is a spiritual and philosophical book written by the renowned Islamic scholar and theologian Al-Ghazzali, Mohammed. The book is a guide to achieving true happiness and fulfillment in life through spiritual and moral development. Al-Ghazzali draws on Islamic teachings and philosophy to explore the nature of happiness, the obstacles that prevent us from attaining it, and the practices and attitudes that can lead us to it. He emphasizes the importance of self-reflection, self-discipline, and self-awareness in the pursuit of happiness, and offers practical advice on how to cultivate these qualities. The book is a timeless classic that continues to inspire readers of all backgrounds and faiths to seek a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.1873. This remarkable treatise is a translation from one of the numerous works of the Arabian philosopher, Abou Hamid Mohammed ben Mohammed al Ghazzali, who flourished in the 11th century. Mohammedan scholars of the present day still hold him in high respect. This treatise on the alchemy of happiness is well-adapted to extend our knowledge of the writings of Ghazzali and of the opinions current then and now in the Oriental world. In form, the book contains a treatise on practical piety and the author finds a place for observations reaching far wide of his apparent aim, making many observations which develop his notions in anatomy, physiology, natural philosophy and natural religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
