A Summary of Imam al-Ghazālī’s The Revival of Religious Sciences is a masterfully condensed 4-volume set that distills the essence of one of the most influential works in Islamic spirituality. Originally authored by Imam al-Ghazālī, 'Iḥyā’ ‘Ulūm al-Dīn' spans theology, ethics, worship, and social conduct. This summary by Ṣāliḥ Ahmad ash-Shāmi preserves the structure and core insights of the original while simplifying the language for broader accessibility. Each volume focuses on a distinct quadrant of the spiritual path: acts of worship, social obligations, destructive traits, and salvific virtues.

Volume 1 covers foundational knowledge and the inner dimensions of worship—prayer, fasting, zakah, and hajj. Volume 2 explores interpersonal ethics, including marriage, earning a livelihood, and social justice. Volume 3 addresses spiritual diseases such as envy, arrogance, and love of the world. Volume 4 presents the path to purification through sincerity, tawbah, gratitude, and reliance on Allah. Each chapter is rooted in Qur’anic verses, hadith, and classical commentary, offering timeless guidance for personal reform and societal harmony.

This set is ideal for students of knowledge, educators, and seekers looking to engage with al-Ghazālī’s legacy in a structured, digestible format. It retains the transformative power of the original while making it suitable for curriculum use and spiritual study circles.
