{"product_id":"niche-of-lights","title":"The Niche of Lights","description":"Abu Hamid Muhammad al-Ghazali's philosophical explorations covered nearly the entire spectrum of twelfth-century beliefs. Beginning his career as a skeptic, he ended it as a scholar of mysticism and orthodoxy. \u003ci\u003eThe Niche of Lights\u003c\/i\u003e, written near the end of his illustrious career, advances the philosophically important idea that reason can serve as a connection between the devout and God. Al-Ghazali argues that abstracting God from the world, as he believed theologians did, was not sufficient for understanding. Exploring the boundary between philosophy and theology, \u003ci\u003eThe Niche of Lights\u003c\/i\u003e seeks to understand the role of reality in the perception of the spiritual. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brigham Young University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56535091315067,"sku":"9780842523530","price":10.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/8431\/1419\/files\/imageloader_01021f49-7cd7-4d78-870a-f10c1040f1ce.jpg?v=1792712111","url":"https:\/\/wmashop.com\/products\/niche-of-lights","provider":"wmashop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
