AL-GHAZALI - THE ALCHEMIST OF HAPPINESS
Commentaries by Shaykh Khalil Moore

Date: Saturday 28 June 2008
Time: 8 pm
Fee: $10 per person
Venue: Madrasah Aljunied Al-Islamiah (30 Victoria Lane)

Abu Hamid al-Ghazali is among Islam’s most influential scholar. This film is an account of the transformative period in Al-Ghazali’s life where, in the midst of worldly success something deep within him stirred and moved him to leave it all behind in search of the ultimate Truth.

The great achievement of Salazar’s film is to portray the unportrayable — the profound inner transformation that is the goal of every spiritual man, yet which few achieve in this life. Through a subtle and sensitive cinematography that takes us on a great journey through Central Asia, Salazar imperceptibly puts us in Al-Ghazali’s shoes.

In today’s world, where Islam is usually only considered in the light of its worst representatives, Salazar reminds us of a man who has, since his lifetime, been universally considered by Muslims themselves to be one who attained the ideal of their religion. Anyone seeking to better understand Islam and Muslims, as well as anyone who feels the inner attraction of the spiritual life will appreciate this film.
