Ibn Arabi, based or cringe? I think it's a mix of both. He explicitly denounces crypto-Buddhist stances on union with God (Guenon and his Sufi initiator Ivan Agueli confused texts by Ibn Sab'in with that of Ibn Arabi). He doesn't hate the world, the body, sexuality, or women (he had many female spiritual teachers). His cosmology is extremely fun and possibly even influenced Dante.

But he has a very cringe, banal, and proto-boomer take on the diversity of beliefs/conceptions of God. He literally states that people worshipping stones are still worshipping God, only in a more limited way. He claimed Noah caused the flood because he didn't see that there's still God in idolatry, and also that Pharaoh is saved. He thinks recognizing God in all things, while still knowing that God transcends all things, is so profound when really it's banal. Taking this seriously, rather than poetically, makes it difficult to apply moral standards to religion and to critique others in a substantial way. Relativist garbage.

When asked by a Sultan what to do with Christians, Ibn Arabi advocated for their harsh persecution, so it's not like he practised what he preached. On top of this hypocrisy is a epic spiritual presumptuousness and arrogance. Ibn Arabi is always making claims about his intellectual and spiritual superiority, while constantly claiming you shouldn't have any aspects of "Lordship" yourself, (ie you should be completely modest) to become close to God. He can't stop comparing his spiritual level with others (usually to denigrate them and say they're of a lower rank) and he believes he is the seal of Muhammadan sanctity, meaning he has received the fullness of the knowledge of Muhammad and no one after him will get knowledge of God directly from Muhammad. They will all have to get it directly from other saints/prophets, and only indirectly from Muhammad.

I made a slight mistake, it's not by Ibn Sab'in, but still reflects his position.

> Agueli also produced a translation of Awhad ad-dīn Balyāni’s Risālat al-ahadiyya (incorrectly attributing it to Ibn Arabi). Michel Chodkiewicz has argued that this short treaty professes a unitarian metaphysics which, by its radical denial of phenomenal reality, reflects the teachings of Ibn Sabin rather than those of Ibn Arabi. It is likely that Balyāni’s doctrine contributed to reinforce the young Guénon in the belief that Sufism and Vedānta were the expression of a same universal Truth.

Many Ibn Arabi scholars have pointed out that he is explicitly going against core aspects of advaita.

Well, Guenon became more knowledgeable about Sufism later in his life, and he didn't changed his opinion on its relation with Advaita and Taoism. He had at least 50 books in arabic in his library, pretty sure that he read Ibn Arabi in original and probably one of his advisors on understanding his works was Michel Valsan who had a lot of knowledge about Ibn Arabi.
Look, I am not an expert on the work of Ibn Arabi, neither on Advaita and I don't say that Guenon was right(can't deny it either) because this things are beyond my current level of understanding. My point is that you shouldn't be an ignorant like many people on this board which think that Guenon wrote things out of his ass, despite the fact that his library was huge, he knew 13 languages in different alphabets and his knowledge on Sufism increased considerably after he moved to Egypt(this can be seen in the many islamic references he made in his last books).

People who translate Ibn Arabi know more about him than Guenon who never had his books in his library. This is a thread about Ibn Arabi, not about Guenon. We have 40 of those every single day. The guy literally said he doesn't know shit about Ibn Arabi, Guenon, or Vedanta.

Proof you've never read him. Wahdat al-wujud is a term never ever employed by Ibn Arabi. It's a revision made by later commentators and does not come from him nor is it his main focus. Ibn Arabi is about human perfection. He distances himself from advaita/plotinian focus on perceiving absolute, pure unity being the goal of spirituality. Read the Mawaki and passages in the Futuhat.

Again, you are mistaking Ibn Sab'in for Ibn Arabi, the latter Guenon never read and was only taught his teachings by Ivan Agueli, who mistakenly translated someone else's text while attributing it to Ibn Arabi.

The Sultan Kay Kaus I asked him what to do with Christians living in his kingdom in 609/1212 and he wrote back essentially saying in no way should they have more rights than Muslims, and they should be prevented from any public display of their faith. I believe it also had to do with the crusades, as Ibn Arabi says Muslims shouldn't go to Jerusalem to pray since it's in the hands of infidels.

Yes, I don't think this can be denied. But some have made good efforts to do so. Ibn Arabi really does say some incredibly beautiful things but then he cancels them out with pure heresy. I like his poetry the most, precisely because you're not compelled to take it as a theology/philosophy.

Meanwhile Christians were already suffering actual persecution under Muslim rulers. The integration of Muslims in lands that Spaniards reconquered was not as problematic until long after Ibn-Arabi. The expulsion of Muslims and Morisco is centuries later, under completely different political and sociological conditions (after their great rebellion and after they helped Turks and Barbaresque slavers launch assaults on Spain). The inquisition was also not in charge of this operation, and it wasn't a genocide at all.

Pre-Islamic Arabia

Some Pre-Islamic poetry mentions Ishmael, his father Abraham, and the sacrifice story, such as the Pre-Islamic poet "Umayyah Ibn Abi As-Salt", who said in one of his poems: بكره لم يكن ليصبر عنه أو يراه في معشر أقتال ([The sacrifice] of his first-born of whose separation he [Abraham] could not bear neither could he see him surrounded in foes).

Zayd ibn Amr was another Pre-Islamic figure who refused idolatry and preached monotheism, claiming it was the original belief of their [Arabs] father Ishmael.

Also, some of the tribes of Central West Arabia called themselves the "people of Abraham and the offspring of Ishmael", as evidenced by a common opening of speeches and harangues of reconciliation between rival tribes in that area.

"Thus we have a ternary, God, man, and woman, the man yearning for his Lord Who is his origin, as woman yearns for man. His Lord made women dear to Muhammad, just as God loves that which is in His own image...When a man loves a woman, he seeks union with her, that is to say the most complete union possible in love, and there is in the elemental sphere no greater union than that between the sexes....When man contemplates the Reality in woman he beholds Him in a passive aspect, while when he contemplates Him in himself, as being that from which woman is manifest, he beholds Him in an active aspect. When, however, he contemplates Him in himself, without any regard to what has come from him, he beholds Him as passive to Himself directly. However, his contemplation of the Reality in woman is the most complete and perfect, because in in this way he contemplates the Reality in both active and passive mode, while by contemplating the Reality only in himself, he beholds Him in passive mode particularly...Contemplation of the Reality without formal support is not possible, since God, in his His Essence, is far beyond all need of the Cosmos. Since, therefore, some form of support is necessary, the best and most perfect kind is the contemplation of God in women. The greatest union is that between man and woman, corresponding as it does to the turning of God toward the one He has created in His own image, to make him His vicegerent, so that He might behold Himself in him."

So can someone give me a good list of books to read about sufism?
So far I have Toshihiko Izutsu - Sufism and Taoism which looks at Ibn Arabi's doctrines but I want more, is there a 500 page book that tries to introduce sufism with 200 pages of notes by any chance?
Also idk if I can get into the Masnavi but the proem is really great, especially as someone who plays the ney, at first only cause I thought the instrument sounded good and I liked listening to the ottoman musical tradition, only later did I discover it's place in certain forms of sufism.

Izutsu is alright. It's only focused on the Fusus and imo it's not that great. It's very much in the spirit of post-modern academia and I think it's not that accurate.

I can't recommend anything simply on Sufism, but I will say Chittick's two books The Sufi Path of Knowledge and The Self-Disclosures of God are very good. If you like Rumi you will Ibn Arabi's The Translator of Desires collection of love poetry. These are the poems he wrote to Nizam that some say was an influence on Dante's Vita Nuova.
