Al-Ghazzali and Plato: Truths

Al-Ghazzali and Plato's stories are similar in that both try to understand the "truth" of life. They both went away on their own path to try to understand the meaning. However, even though they both tried to understand the truth of life, they differed in how they approached it. Al-Ghazzali's work involved a majority of religious aspects while Plato's didn't. Plato believed in that finding the truth comes through contemplation and reality, while Al-Ghazzali uses Allah as a guide to truth.
