When reading Ibn Arabi it is easy to become bewildered by some of his contradictory statements regarding unity, multiplicity and non-existence. You have to keep in mind that Sufi Masters cannot ideate their inner world and the experiences they have had in traversing through it, through words. People like Ibn Arabi really did live in their own world and words cannot Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom access spiritual dimensi This is the fourth book I have read by Ibn Arabi, and I am happy to say that I learnt something new. People like Ibn Arabi really did live in their own world Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom words cannot always access spiritual dimensions. When reading Ibn Arabi, you have to also bear in mind the context of the times he lived in. During the era of Sufism, there were scores of people who regarded themselves as souls and as such paid more attention to the dimension and construction of their souls than they did to the outside world. Another point of interest was the false hadith which Ibn Arabi relied so heavily upon. Most notable being 'If there are two rulers in the country, kill one of them. I was however heartened to read later on that Ibn Arabi actively encourage people to work as opposed to sitting down and praying. All in all, Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom good expose into the inner and outer world of Ibn Arabi. Feb 23, Lumumba Shakur rated it really liked it Shelves: sufi-studiessecond-look. This is probably the most accessible treatise by Ibn Arabi that I've had the good pleasure to have read. That may be due to Shaykh Tosun Bayrak's translation style. It has been a while since Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom have read it, but I do recall that I enjoined all three selections that are in this publication. This is translation of Ibn Arabi's that I want to read again. Dec 25, Leon Del canto rated it it was amazing. Very accessible and highly recommended to those interested in Islamic spirituality.

Out of the works attributed to him, some are authentic while over are still extant. His cosmological teachings became the dominant worldview in many parts of the Islamic world. Ibn Arabi was Sunnialthough his writings on the Twelve Imams were also popularly received among Shia. After his death, Ibn Arabi's teachings quickly spread throughout the Islamic world. His writings were not limited to the Muslim elites, but made their way into other ranks of society through the widespread reach of the Sufi orders. Arabi's work also popularly spread through works in Persian, Turkish, and Urdu. Many popular poets were trained in the Sufi orders and were inspired Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom Arabi's concepts. Others scholars in his time like al-MunawiIbn 'Imad al-Hanbali and al-Fayruzabadi all praised Ibn Arabi as ''A righteous friend of Allah and faithful scholar of knowledge'', ''the absolute mujtahid without doubt'' and ''the imam of the people of shari'a both in knowledge and in legacy, the educator of the people of the way in practice and in knowledge, and the shaykh of the shaykhs of the people of truth though spiritual experience dhawq and understanding''. Ibn Arabi's paternal ancestry was from the Arabian tribe of Tayy[13] and his maternal ancestry was North African Berber. His family then relocated from Murcia to Seville. As a young man Ibn Arabi became secretary to the governor of Seville. He married Maryam from an influential family. Ibn Arabi writes that as a child he preferred playing with his friends to spending time on religious education. He had his first vision of God in his teens and later wrote of the experience as "the differentiation of the universal reality comprised by that look". Later he had several more visions of Jesus and called him his "first guide to the path of God". His father, on noticing a change in him, had mentioned this to philosopher and judge, Ibn Rushd Averroes[17] who asked to meet Ibn Arabi. Ibn Arabi said that from this first meeting, he had learned to perceive a Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom between formal knowledge of rational thought and the unveiling insights into the nature of things. He then adopted Sufism and dedicated his life to the spiritual path. Ibn Arabi left Spain for the first time at age 36 and arrived at Tunis in After a year in Tunisia, he returned to Andalusia in His father died soon after Ibn Arabi arrived at Seville. When his mother died some months Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom he left Spain for the second time and travelled with his two sisters to Fez, Morocco in This time Ibn Arabi was travelling north; first they visited Medina and in they entered Baghdad. It was his first time that he passed through Syria, visiting Aleppo and Damascus. The next four to five years of Ibn Arabi's life were spent in these lands and Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom also kept travelling and holding the reading sessions of his works in his own presence. Although Ibn Arabi stated on more than one occasion that he did not blindly follow any one Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom the schools of Islamic jurisprudence Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom, he was responsible for copying and preserving books of the Zahirite or literalist school, to which there is fierce debate whether or not Ibn Arabi followed that school. On this elevation the Prophet stood, and a man whom I did not know, approached him; they embraced each other so violently that they seemed to interpenetrate and become one person. Great brightness concealed them from the eyes of the people. One of my shaykhs, whom I questioned, informed me that this man is an authority in the field of science of Hadeeth. Ibn Arabi did delve into specific details at times, and was known for his view that religiously binding consensus could only serve as a source of sacred law if it was the consensus of the first generation of Muslims who had witnessed revelation directly. Taking an idea already common within Sufi culture, Ibn Arabi applied deep analysis and reflection on the concept of a perfect human and one's pursuit in fulfilling this goal. In developing his explanation of the perfect Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom, Ibn Arabi first discusses the issue of oneness through the metaphor of the mirror. In this philosophical metaphor, Ibn Arabi compares an object being reflected in countless mirrors to the relationship between God and his creatures. God's essence is seen in the existent human being, as God is the object and human beings the mirrors. Meaning two things; that since humans are mere reflections of God there can be no distinction or separation between the two and, without God the creatures would be non-existent. When an individual understands that there is no separation between human and God they begin on the path of ultimate oneness. The one who decides to walk in this oneness pursues the true reality and responds to God's longing to be known. The search within for this reality of oneness causes one to be reunited with God, as well as, improve self-consciousness. The perfect human, through this developed self- consciousness and self-realization, prompts divine self-manifestation. This causes the perfect human to be of both divine and earthly origin. Ibn Arabi metaphorically calls him an Isthmus. Being an Isthmus between heaven and Earth, the perfect human fulfills God's desire to be known. God's presence can be realized through him by others. Ibn Arabi expressed that through self manifestation one acquires divine knowledge, which he called the primordial spirit of Muhammad and all its perfection. Ibn Arabi details that the perfect human is of the cosmos to the Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom and conveys the divine spirit to the cosmos. Ibn Arabi further explained the perfect man concept using at least twenty-two different descriptions and various aspects when considering the Logos. Ibn Arabi believed Muhammad to be the primary perfect man who exemplifies the morality of God. Ibn Arabi believed that God's attributes and names are manifested in this world, with the most complete and perfect display of these divine attributes and names seen in Muhammad. Ibn Arabi believed that one may see God in the mirror of Muhammad. He maintained that Muhammad was the best proof of God and, by knowing Muhammad, one knows God. Ibn Arabi also described Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and all other prophets and various Awliya Allah Muslim saints as perfect men, but never tires of Divine Governance of the Human Kingdom lordship, inspirational source, and highest rank to Muhammad. The reaction of Ibn 'Abd as-Salama Muslim scholar respected by both Ibn Arabi's supporters and detractors, has been of note due to disputes over whether he himself was a supporter or detractor. All parties have claimed to have transmitted Ibn 'Abd as-Salam's comments from his student Ibn Sayyid al- Nas, yet the two sides have transmitted very different accounts. Some works are attributed to Ibn Arabi, although only some have been authenticated. Recent research suggests that over of his works have survived in manuscript form, although most printed versions have not yet been critically edited and include many errors. The second draft, which the most widely circulated and used, was bequeathed to his disciple, Sadr al-Din al-Qunawi. Diagram of Jannat Futuhat al-Makkiyya, c.
