This study aims to examine the thoughts brought by both western and Islamic figures regarding Abraham Maslow's self-actualization from Al-Ghazali's perspective. This is based on the thoughts of the two figures Abraham Maslow and Al-Ghazali which are often the subject of lengthy discussions among thinkers, scholars, and psychologists, one of which is the statement that self-actualization is synonymous with a person's desire to use all his or her abilities to achieve everything they can achieve and be able to achieve, self-actualization is also the highest need and achievement for a human being, and is the culmination of one's maturity and maturity. The author uses a qualitative research method of literature and interpretive analysis, the author seeks to collect data and then filter and quote various data sources which are then interpreted to obtain a valid conclusion. The author's validation method uses method, time, and theory triangulation. The results of the research show that Abraham Maslow views self-actualization as a desire to be satisfied with himself, to realize all of his potential, to become whatever he can do, and to be creative and free to reach the peak of his potential achievement. And Al-Ghazali also saw that self-actualization is when a person experiences an emptiness in himself which makes the filler of the spiritual spirit uncontrollable in every human being, and at that time a person also experiences various kinds of problems in his life, both those caused by within himself and from outside himself.
