Editing Al-Ghazali (section)

=== ''Disciplining the Soul'' ===
One of the key sections of Ghazali's ''[[The Revival of the Religious Sciences|Revival of the Religious Sciences]]'' is ''Disciplining the Soul'', which focuses on the internal struggles that every Muslim will face over the course of his lifetime.<ref name="Winter-2016">{{Cite book |title=Al-Ghazali on Disciplining the Soul and on Breaking the Two Desires |last=Winter |first=T.J |publisher=The Islamic Text Society |year=2016}}</ref> The first chapter primarily focuses on how one can develop himself into a person with positive attributes and good personal characteristics . The second chapter has a more specific focus: sexual satisfaction and [[gluttony]].<ref name="Winter-2016" /> Here, Ghazali states that indeed every man has these desires and needs, and that it is natural to want these things.<ref name="Winter-2016" /> However, the Prophet explicitly states that there must be a middle ground for man, in order to practice the tenets of Islam faithfully. The ultimate goal that Ghazali is presenting not only in these two chapters, but in the entirety of ''The'' ''Revival of the Religious Sciences'', is that there must be moderation in every aspect of the soul of a man, an equilibrium. These two chapters were the 22nd and 23rd chapters, respectively, in Ghazali's ''Revival of the Religious Sciences''.<ref name="Winter-2016" />
