Imam al-Ghazali said in his book Al-Munqiz min adh-Dhalal: “So I held discussions with people who had spiritual insight, understanding and awareness and had mushahadah (witnessing with the eyes of the heart). They agreed to suggest that I leave the uzlah and leave the zawiyah (because I had been in the uzlah for 10 years). In addition, I received many more mutawatir dreams (many had such dreams) from righteous people, (who) testified that this (my) action was the beginning of goodness and guidance that Allah had destined to happen IN THIS CENTURY. So hope was strengthened and optimism (positive belief) because of these testimonies, and (indeed) Allah has promised to revive His ad-deen (His religion) at the beginning of EVERY CENTURY.” - Imam al-Ghazali, A-Munqiz min adh-Dhalal
