Sufi fragmented writing in the experience of Ibn Arabi.

Abstract

The creative Sufi experience of Ibn Arabi was known to be remarkably empirical, as it relies on conscience and the authority of the self, and it raises the question of meaning and Sufi knowledge. The perspective in our reading of Ibn Arabi's Sufi fragments is based on two sides. The point of mystical knowledge with all its loads, and critical knowledge that is based on specific reading perspectives and questions, within a corpus of the fragments contained in the books of Ibn Arabi: - “The Isra to the Position of the Prisoners”, “Scenes of the Sacred Secrets and Perspectives of the Divine Lights”, “The Book of Censorship”, Ibn Arabi's Letters, and Unreliable Message.
