They tell you that both mathematics and religion are in Islamic values. They both of them are important. They don't criticize or praise one eachother. The Islamic culture values intelligence, creativity, and the understanding of the world around you.
2. According to Al-Ghazzali, should mathematics and religion he separated? Why or why not?
According to Al-Ghazzali, mathematics and religion shouldn't be separated. He says that they are connected and one can't be without the other. He said that they should both be followed together because they don't condemn or approve eachother.
3. In what ways is Al-Ghazzali thinking similar to Plato's allegory to the cave? In what ways do they diverge?
They are similar in that they believe that someone or something would lead them to the truth or they would find it themselves. They are different because Al-Ghazzali believes that god will lead a person to the truth, while Plato does not specify who would lead a person to the truth. Also Al-Ghazzali doesn't believe that a person will know when they see truth because a person can never be sure if what they see is truth or not. There is no definite way to tell or see the difference. Plato thinks a person will know when they see the truth.
