CONTENTS
DESCRIPTION
For the first time in the History of Orientalism, a thorough study of ibn al- 'Arabi's thought is now available. William Chittick has given us a translation of numerous passages from the work of the Magister Magnus and placed them in their theological context, thus removing many misunderstandings that have prevailed both among Muslim and in the West when interpreting Ibn al-Arabis mystical worldview. Chittick has done this with admirable clarity, and his book will always remain a most important milestone in the study of Islamic mystical theology.
