ISTAC-IIUM invites you to a contemplative exploration of the inner sciences of the soul through Ihya Ulum al-Din (The Revival of the Religious Sciences) by the eminent theologian and mystic Imām al-Ghazālī.📖 Psychological Readings from Imām al-Ghazālī's Ihya’ Ulum al-Din —
The Revival of the Religious Sciences
🎙 Convener & Speaker: Prof. Dr. Süleyman Derin
Through a psychologically attuned reading of Imām al-Ghazālī’s spiritual anthropology, this session will examine the dynamics of the self — the tension between impulse and intellect, heedlessness and awareness. It will approach purification of the heart as the reordering of cognition, emotion, and desire, and the disciplining of the nafs as ethical self-regulation.
Here, theology becomes a map of meaning, philosophy a structure of understanding, and inner experience a field of transformative insight.
