Book of Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali: The Lawful and the Unlawful
The book of Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali, The Lawful and the Unlawful, is considered one of the important works for researchers interested in scholars, preachers, and thinkers in Islamic sciences and other cultural specializations; as the book of Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali, The Lawful and the Unlawful, falls within the scope of the specialization of studies of scholars, preachers, historians, and other figures whose intellectual contributions led to the development of human thought.
The book's information is as follows
As the ignorant assumed that the lawful is non-existent, and that the path to it is blocked, and that nothing remains of good things except fresh water and grass growing in barren land, and everything else has been corrupted by aggressive hands and spoiled by corrupt dealings.
And if contentment with grass from plants becomes difficult, then there is no alternative but to broaden the scope of forbidden things. So they rejected this pillar of religion altogether, and they did not distinguish between wealth. And indeed, indeed, the lawful is clear and the unlawful is clear, and between them are doubtful matters.
And these three remain intertwined no matter how circumstances change. And since this was an innovation whose harm spread throughout religion and whose evil spread among people.
It was necessary to uncover the veil of its corruption, by guiding to the comprehension of the difference between the lawful, the unlawful, and the doubtful, in a precise and clear manner, and that restriction does not take it out of the realm of possibility. We will clarify this in seven chapters.
