One of the most important works written on Islamic Mysticism,
by al-Sheikh al-Akbar Muhyi id Dīn Ibn ʿArabī
Muhyi id Dīn Ibn ʿArabī (1165–1240) is deemed by many as the greatest mystic of Islam, his mystical philosophy attracting the attention of both Muslims and non-Muslims from his time to the present day. He taught that the cosmos, our world, and all life within it, are the self-manifestation of God. Coming at the end of his life, the Fuṣūṣ al-Hikam examines the unique signatures of twenty-seven prophets of Islam, offering the best over-view of Muhyi id Dīn Ibn ʿArabī’s teaching. Although this book is both deep and complex, in the time we will be studying it I will offer commentary to the material offered in a way that supports and clarifies your personal practice and the cultivation of your inner being. This study will be offered in segments of 5 classes with 5 lessons per class. You may participate in any one (or in all) of the classes.
