Written by Imam Ghazali (died 505 AH)
ShareKimiya-e-Sa'adat Alchemy of Happniness (کیمیائے سعادت)
By Imam Abu Hamid al-Ghazali (450-505 AH)
{كميائي سعادات} Kimiya-ye Saadah (Alchemy of Happiness) [M:45; A:45] Al-Ghazali's own Persian version of the Ihya' a shorter work. Considering al-Ghazali's pedagogical tendencies one could assume that the Ihya' is larger/deeper work on the subject, the Kimiya to be the medium work and the 'arbain to be the summary work.
