Composed before the Ihya as a kind of seed-text for it, the work covers the practical disciplines that the wayfarer needs from the moment he wakes: the manners of rising, of wudu, of salat, of the daily Quran portion, of dealing with people throughout the day, of work, of eating, of sleep — and the inner disciplines that accompany them: avoiding the sins of the heart (envy, pride, ostentation), cultivating sincerity, dealing patiently with affliction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the Ihya unfolds these themes across four large volumes, Bidayat al-Hidaya remains the most accessible single-volume introduction to al-Ghazali's spiritual programme, and is universally read in Sunni-Sufi circles as the first practical text on the path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout The Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImam al-Ghazali (450-505 AH \/ 1058-1111 CE), Hujjat al-Islam, is among the most influential thinkers in the history of Islam.
