The 'Fusus al-Hikam' is acknowledged to be a summary statement of
the sufi metaphysics of the 'Greatest Master', Ibn 'Arabi (d.1240).
It is also recognised that the 'Fusus' is a work of great
complexity both in its ideas and its style; and, over the
centuries, numerous commentaries have been written on it. Each of
the chapters of the 'Fusus' is dedicated to a Qur'anic prophet with
whom a particular 'wisdom' is associated. In 'Sufi Metaphysics and
Qur'anic Prophets: Ibn 'Arabi's Thought and Method in the "Fusus
al-Hikam"', Ronald Nettler examines ten chapters from the 'Fusus'
which exemplify the ideas, method and perspective of the entire
work. Concentrating on a detailed analysis of the text, the author
brings out the profound connection and integration of scripture and
metaphysics in the world-view of Ibn 'Arabi. 'Sufi Metaphysics and
Qur'anic Prophets' serves not only as an explication of Ibn
'Arabi's thought in the 'Fusus', but is also a great aid in the
overall understanding of Ibn 'Arabi's thought.
