description Al-Ghazali is one of the greatest Muslim scholars. He is known as Hujjah al-Islām because of his success in defending Islamic orthodoxy in the face of heretical groups. However, Al-Ghazali is also not free from controversy. Among these criticisms is that Al-Ghazali had experienced a period of skepticism and inconsistent thinking. This research attempts to analyze Al-Ghazali's works and secondary books that explain Al-Ghazali's thoughts. This study uses a qualitative approach to the type of literature research. The topic of this research is the controversy surrounding skepticism and accusations of inconsistency in Al-Ghazali's thought. The steps in this study include topic selection, information exploration, focus determination, data collection, data presentation, and report preparation. The results of this study suggest that Al-Ghazali's skeptical period was not a problem because it happened in a short time and he did not produce any papers. The problem of Al-Ghazali's inconsistency arises because of the many works attributed to him but not actually Al-Ghazali's work or because of the different readers intended by Al-Ghazali in his different books, as stated by Dunya. In conclusion, this study argues that a comprehensive reading of Al-Ghazali's work is needed to provide a complete picture of Al-Ghazali's figure and the extent to which his works are devoted.
