This book explores how Ibn 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.
