Fusus al-Hikam (The Bezels of Wisdom) is one of the most famous works of Sufi metaphysics, written by the great Andalusian mystic Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi (1165–1240 CE). The book presents the wisdom of 27 prophets, each representing a divine attribute, and is considered a cornerstone of theoretical Sufism (Irfan). Ibn Arabi is often referred to as "Al-Shaykh al-Akbar" (The Greatest Master) in the Islamic mystical tradition.
Ibn Arabi was born in Murcia, Spain, and traveled extensively across the Islamic world, eventually settling in Damascus where he passed away. Among his other major works are 'Al-Futuhat al-Makkiyya' (The Meccan Revelations) and 'Tarjuman al-Ashwaq' (The Interpreter of Desires). His doctrine of 'Wahdat al-Wujud' (Unity of Being) has been both deeply influential and controversial in Islamic intellectual history, sparking debates among scholars like Ibn Taymiyyah and later Sufi thinkers.
