Debate over the Philosophy of Ibn 'Arabī
Ibn 'Arabī was a 12th century Andalusi scholar and mystic, regarded by many Sufis as the foremost spiritual master. His pantheistic philosophy of the 'unity of being' viewed all of creation as a manifestation of God Name and invited worshippers to see divine beauty, not merely in the traditional rituals of Islam, but in all aspects of life.
Ever since, debates have raged on over the compatibility of his philosophy with scholarly interpretations of Islam, with some going so far as to label him an unbeliever. For many Sufis, on the other hand, Ibn 'Arabī's philosophy became the foundational principle of their religious practice. Now we too are being asked to take sides.
