The Alchemy of Happiness

Alchemy of Happiness was written towards the end of Al Ghazzali's life. Al Ghazzali was a Persian theologian, philosopher, and prolific Sunni author regarded as one of the greatest systematic Persian thinkers of Islam. The factor that set his works apart from other theological works at the time was its mystical emphasis on self-discipline and asceticism. Al Ghazzali succeeded in gaining widespread acceptance for Sufism.
