پندنامه (Pand-nama)

Al-Ghazali según Khalil Gibran
byAl-Ghazali

A Persian letter of advice formally addressed to a ruler, in the genre of admonitory literature. Its attribution to al-Ghazali is explained by its being largely made of passages from the *Kimiya*, which makes it a witness to that work's fortune.
