This book explores how Iban al-'Arabi (1165-1240) used the concept
of barzakh (the Limit) to deal with the philosophical problem of
the relationship between God and the world, a major concept
disputed in ancient and medieval Islamic thought. The term barzakh
indicates the activity or actor that differentiates between things
and that, paradoxically, then provides the context of their unity.
Author Salman H. Bashier looks at early thinkers and shows how the
synthetic solutions they developed provided the groundwork for Ibn
al-'Arabi's unique concept of barzakh. Bashier discusses Ibn
al-'Arabi's development of the concept of barzakh ontologically
through the notion of the Third Thing and epistemologically through
the notion of the Perfect Man, and compares Ibn al-'Arabi's vision
with Plato's.
