Sufi
Metaphysics and Qur’anic Prophets
Ibn Arabi’s Thought and
Method in the Fusus al-Hikam
RONALD L NETTLER
The Fusus al-Hikam is acknowledged to be a summary statement of
the sufi metaphysics of the ‘Greatest Master’, Ibn
Arabi (1165-1240AD). Ronald Nettler examines ten chapters from
the Fusus which exemplify the ideas, method and perspective of
the entire work. Sufi Metaphysics and Qur’anic Prophets
serves not only as an explication of Ibn Arabi’s thought
in the Fusus, but is also a great aid in the overall understanding
of Ibn Arabi’s thought. |
