GHAZALI AND PRAYERS
Greatest of Muslim thinkers. A jurist and theologian, he is regarded as a pivotal figure in the transition period from classical to Sufistic medieval Islam, which is represented in the Tariqah (the Sufi orders). Ghaza/i and Pr€yer is the first extensive study of Ghazalits theory of prayer (dhikr and du’äh), and demonstrates their significance and application in the daily program of divine offices (wird); it also shows that this mystical program, with its variations, was intended for all Muslims.
