Abstract
Al-Ghazali has been referred to, by some historians, as the single most influential Muslim after Prophet Muhammad .His work was so highly acclaimed by his contemporaries that he was awarded the honorific title "proof of Islam" (Hujjat al-Islam).Al-Ghazali argued that some fundamen- talists, who perceive philosophy to incompatible with religion, tend to categorically reject all views adopted by 'philosophers' including scientific facts like lunar and solar eclipses, but when later persuaded of a certain view, they tend to blindly accept all other views held by the philosophers. He encouraged people to gain knowledge and was not against modern science, rather he was against the idea of viewing religious faith through the principles of modern science, also brought the orthodox Islam of his time to close contact with Sufism making it increasing possible for individuals to combine the two.
