Concerning Divine Wisdom in the Creation of Man

Concerning Divine Wisdom in the Creation of Man is a selected translation and commentary of Imam al-Ghazali's treatise on the human anatomy and physiology. In it, al-Ghazali masterfully provides the seeker of religious knowledge a window into Allah’s creativity through the Islamic study of anatomy.

The study of anatomy for the Muslim serves as a potential means to fulfill two distinct goals:

1. To increase one’s attachment to the Creator through a deeper appreciation of the details of His creation
2. Or to become a professional with knowledge of diseases and cures
