As a pracical mystic, Ghazali's aim was to make man better by leading him from a merely rational acquiescience in the stereotype creed of Islam to a real knowledge of God. The first four chapters of his Kimiya-i-Sa-adaat are a commentary on the famous verse in the Hadith: He who knows himself knows God.

This little volume contains eight sections of the Kimiya-i-Sa-adaat.
