Sufism and the Perfect Human: From Ibn 'Arabī To Al-Jīlī

By Fitzroy Morrissey

Studying the history of the notion of the 'Perfect Human', this book investigates a key idea in the history of Sufism. First discussed by Ibn 'Arabī and later treated in greater depth by al-Jīlī, the idea left its mark on later Islamic mystical, metaphysical, and political thought, from North Africa to Southeast Asia, up until modern times.
