Introduction
Ibn Arabī (1165-1240) can be considered to be the greatest of all
Muslim philosophers, if we understand philosophy in the broad, modern
sense and not simply as the discipline of falsafa. He has been called
al-Shaykh al-Akbar, the Greatest Master, a title that was understood
to mean that no one else has been or will be able to unpack the
multi-layered significance of the sources of the Islamic tradition
with such detail and profundity. Ibn Arabīs writings remained
unknown in the West until modern times, but they spread throughout
the
Islamic world within a century of his death. Some of his most
well-known works are the Fusūs al-hikam (The Ringstones of the
Wisdoms) and the Futūhāt al makkiyya (The Meccan Openings). The
implication of his thoughts for contemporary concerns have been
addressed by many scholars and devoters especially through the
Journal
of the Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi Society, which has been published since
1983. Ibn Arabīs basic project is to map out the possibilities of
human becoming, to clarify the distinction between haqq and bātil -
truth and falsehood, reality and unreality, right and wrong and to
point his readers toward perfection, that is, realization of the Real
to the extent possible within the human capacity (alā qadr tāqat
al-bahar). Besides ethics, much is being said today about the
importance of spiritual intelligence in human happiness. Ibn Arabīs
very famous Fusūs al-hikam (Bezels of Wisdom) is one example of how
we
might understand the source and mechanism for such intelligence.

1.To gather the results of research carried by Iranian and Malaysian

Arabī.

contemporary world.
