Abstract

Al Ghazali represents the Islamic leaders with great influence in the progress of education in the world. Education is vital to human life today, most specifically in the era of globalization where there are rapid changes in values and structures related to humans. Sheikh & Ali, (2019) contends that life without education is impossible. That, education is a necessity in these changing times. Imam Al Ghazali, apart from being a scholar, gives his view on education. From his perspective, education is an interaction between the teacher and student which continues to grow gradually, developmentally to build a harmonious and conclusive relationship with God for spiritual benefit and happiness. Al Ghazali’s philosophy cuts across the Islamic thinking on education where he inclines towards a reconciliation and integration of intellectual schools. He combines legal, philosophical and mystical thinking.
