ghazzali on pleasure and its types

ghazzali has viewed pleasure as perceiving what is desirable and has given it in different types of: sensible and hearty, sensible and non sensible, external and internal, sensible and intellectual, intellectual and bodily. he has viewed human pleasure growth to be in five steps and known five elements for distinguishing them including those of the faculty of perception, perceptions, the meanings perceived, species difference and difference in power and weakness. abu hamid has followed farabi in his view on pleasure and his little attention to avicenna`s two definitions of pleasure can be regarded as a defect in his study. furthermore, different divisions of pleasure in ghazzali may be reduced into one. lack of distinction between heart and intellect in his view can be regarded as a failure.
