Sufi Quotes

Divine knowledge leads to the realisation of ‘Fanaa'. For Ibn Arabi ‘fana' is only a process of the recognition of inmost self or the awareness of the ‘Oneness’ with God. It frees man from the bondage of ignorance.

Sufi Quotes

As regards the relation between human soul and the Divine Soul. Ibn Arabi maintains that, on account of lack of Divine knowledge, we believe that our individual soul is a part of the Divine soul. When we gain Divine knowledge, the truth will be revealed in our heart and we will realise that our soul is nothing but the Divine soul in its original form.

Sufi Quotes

Being is subject to continual annihilation and continual renewal. Ibne Arabi says: “Man does not spontaneously arrive at a clear idea of the fact that at each ‘breath’ he is not and then again is... in ‘the Renewing of Creation at each breath’ the instant of annihilation coincides with the instant of the manifestation of its like.”

Sufi Quotes

Ibne Arabi was the first Sufi who developed the concept of a Universal Religion. He says, since there is one Divine Essence in innumerable forms, God may be worshipped through innumerable ways. One Perfect God cannot be limited to any particular belief or creed. The true gnostic follows the principle of oie God and one religion.

Sufi Quotes

Ibne Arabi mystically distinguishes between Divine Names and Divine Attributes. Prior to God's manifestation into various forms, the Pure Essence is to be understood in terms of Divine Names. The Divine Attributes are the expressed forms or the revelations of the Divine Names.
