ISBN: 0791434044
Author: William C. Chittick
Publisher: State University of New York Press
Pages: 483 Binding: Paperback
Description from the publisher:
This book continues the author’s investigations of the world view of Ibn al-‘Arabi, the greatest theoretician of Sufism and the “seal of the Muhammadan saints.” The book is divided into three parts, dealing with the relation between God and the cosmos, the structure of the cosmos, and the nature of the human soul. A long introduction orients the reader and discusses a few of the difficulties faced by Ibn al-‘Arabi’s interpreters. Like Chittick’s earlier work, The Sufi Path of Knowledge, this book is based primarily on Ibn al-‘Arabi’s monumental work, al-Futuhat al-makiyya “The Meccan Openings.” More than one hundred chapters and subsections are translated, not to mention shorter passages that help put the longer discussions in context. There are detailed indexes of sources, Koranic verses, and hadiths. The book’s index of technical terminology will be an indispensable reference for all those wishing to delve more deeply into use of language in Islamic though in general and Sufism in particular.
