Can you help me compare and contrast al-ghazali and averroes?

Question

i need a comparison and contrast analysis on al ghazali's and averroes' views on:

1. first cause

2. necessity

3. causation

based on averroes' Tahafut-al-Tahafut. It would be great if you will add exerpts/ quotes from the selection.

Answer 1

I have never studied either, and I know only a little of Averroes. Maybe you can find your answers here

Answer 2

Suggest you go to following links to read what you want, as it is too descriptive to put up here.
