““The majority con- sensus, however, reached eventually was again expressed clearly and forcefully by al-Ghazzâlî: “The knowledge about (ma- rifah) God is the end of every cognition (ma- rifah) and the fruit of every knowledge (or science, - ilm) according to all schools of thought." There is no true knowledge of God for man, but human knowledge can achieve some realization of His being.””
