Michel Chodkiewicz's "The Seal of the Saints: Prophethood and
Sainthood in the Doctrine of Ibn Arabi" explores for the first time
the Greatest Sufi Master's `hagiology' or teaching on sainthood.
Founded on a careful analysis of the relevant texts, "The Seal of
the Saints" examines this essential aspect of Ibn Arabi's doctrine
of sainthood, defining the nature and function of sainthood, while
also specifying the criteria for a typology of saints based on the
notion of prophetic inheritance. In "The Seal of the Saints",
Chodkiewicz also includes a detailed description of the two phases
of the initiatory journey, the ascent to God, followed by the
descent to created beings which, once accomplished, makes a saint
the necessary mediator between Heaven and Earth. "The Seal of the
Saints" greatly enhances knowledge of Ibn Arabi's metaphysics and
his doctrine of sainthood which has had a profound effect on Sufism
ever since.
