## Description

The Book of Love, Longing, Intimacy and Contentment is the thirty-sixth chapter of Abu Hamid al-Ghazali''s Revival of the Religious Sciences
. This was the first treatise which established not merely the possibility but the necessity for the love of God. Ghazali argues that all the virtues and spiritual stages that precede love, like repentance, patience and thankfulness, lead to love; and all the spiritual stages that follow on from love are a result of it. Out of Ghazali''s pioneering treatment would emerge not only new trends in Sufi theory and practice, but an entire body of mystical poetry including that of the great Persian poets Rumi and Hafiz. The translation is preceded by an extensive introduction which sets the work in its historical and spiritual context.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Profound read
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 15 January 2019*

The book touches on the higher stations that the spiritual wayfarer can aspire to. It may be useful to read the books on patience and spiritual discipline in advance of this book as those are lower stations on Ghazali's spiritual framework. The books certainly opened my eyes to the nature of the relationship between man and God, servant and master; one that transcends a relationship based on obedience out of fear and hope for reward. Love and longing here are described as the highest basis for one's actions in this world.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chuffed

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thinking about love?
