The importance of Ibn Arabi (1165-1240) for Islamic mysticism lies in the fact that he was a speculative thinker of the highest order, His central doctrine is the unity of all existence. In the text, William Chittick explores how, though the work of Ibn Arabi, Sufism moves a way from anguished and ascetic searchings of the heart and conscience and becomes a matter of speculative philosophy and theosophy.
William C. Chittick is a renowned expert in Islam and is Professor of Comparative Literature at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
