In this paper, I offer a reconstruction of Ghazālī's encounter with scepticism in the Deliverance from Error . For Ghazālī, I argue, radical scepticism about the possibility of knowledge ensues from intellectualist assumptions about the nature of justification. On the reading that I will propose, Ghazālī holds that foundational knowledge can only be justified via actions that lead to transformative experiences
