Inner Compass

One of Imam al-Ghazali's advanced students wrote to the Imam with a question: From all the fields of knowledge, what will benefit us most in the grave? The student was seeking advice short enough that he could keep it with him at all times and refer to it constantly. Ayyuhal Walad is the great Imam's response: a personal note from al-Ghazali to his student, and by extension to anyone who desires to follow their way.
