Imam Ghazali's The Beginning of Guidance (Bidayat al-Hidaya) is a highly motivational manual detailing the fundamentals of acquiring guidance through God-consciousness (taqwa). Imam Ghazali argues that just as there is an end to this noble objective there is also a beginning to it, which must be made firm for one to achieve success. He then goes on to expound the fundamentals of this "beginning." While being concise and to-the-point the manual is laid out in the form of a detailed daily timetable providing the reader strong inspiration and much heart-rending counsel. The three sections of this book are on obedience, refraining from disobedience, and the etiquette of companionship with the Creator and with creation. One of Imām Ghazālī's final works, it embodies a lifetime of learning, experience, and spirituality and can be taken as an introduction to his larger works.

mashallah really good, islamic scholars have always maintained that for believers knowledge n good deeds are not just to be spoken of but be done, for one to actually say that knowledge is of benefit, its not to say it in a gathering or on a social networking site n get applauds but walk the talk, is emphasised by one n all :) mashallah

salam
