Answer: D. 1058

Explanation

Imam Al-Ghazali was born in the year 1058 A.D. in Tus, Persia. His birth date places him squarely in the golden age of Islamic scholarship. Historical biographies consistently record his birth year during the eleventh century. Tus was a major cultural and intellectual center in historical Khorasan. Al-Ghazali received comprehensive early education in his hometown before traveling widely. He emerged as one of the most influential scholars in Islamic intellectual history.

Historians study the timelines of medieval scholars to contextualize their intellectual contributions. Biographical data helps researchers trace the political and cultural influences on his philosophy. Academic institutions commemorate historical milestones of prominent theologians and philosophers. 1158 occurs long after his lifetime and historical death date. 1099 marks a different period during the First Crusade rather than his birth. 1059 is close but historically inaccurate according to standard biographical records.
