Illumination or knowledge through light is a central theme of medieval
philosophy, especially in the Islamic tradition. This special kind of knowledge
finds its source in the Qur´anic Verse of Light. Light became a major theme of
Sufism and Islamic philosophy, the former being more closely to the Qur´anic
source and the latter standing in the field of philosophy. In his Mishkāt alanwār, the Niche of Lights, Abu Hamid al-Ghazali attempts to expose the
meaning of light and knowledge through light. The bridging figure of the
“Proof of Islam” opens an original perspective on the matter: through
combination of theory and through embedding the knowledge in Sufi
practices. Ghazali´s perspective centers on the character of knowledge
accessible through illumination that ultimately leads to an awareness of
transcendence.
