It seems what you really meant was:

> And third, they haven't read Al-Ghazali, don't quite understand how I make decisions.

Not everyone makes decision guided by the heart. Many people lean more on reason and logic.

> Many people lean more on reason and logic.

Yes, when theres's no impulse strong enough to outweigh reasoning. You don't need Ghazali for this, Kant also explains it. Before suggesting that I rephrase things, I think you should explore the domain first.

That’s beside the point. It’s perfectly valid to draw inspiration from Kant or Al-Ghazali for your decision-making framework, but neither explains how people actually make decisions in general-their work is fundamentally normative. By the way, I'd be surprised if a true Kantian would have arrived at the same decision as you.
