THE FEATURES OF SUFI LITERATURE IN ANDALUSIA IBN ARABI'S POETRY (D. 638 AH) AND HIS MUWASHSHAHAT
The paper aims at identifying the features of Sufi literature in
Andalusia throughout studying the poetry of the philosopher poet
Mohyiddin Ibn Arabi and his Mwshahath. It is notable that the
Sufism movement in Andalusia preceded the birth of the Sufi poetry
movement, as it appeared in the era of Almohadons. Then, it has
built by Ibn Arabi who is considered the greatest Sufi poet in
Andalusia and the Arabi Levant.
Sufi poem is notable by specific features and characteristics, which
distinguish it from other purposes of Arabic poetry. Some of these
features are the availability of meanings and Sufi vocalizations as
well as a remarkable intensification of the term Sufi in the poetic text
or Sufi Muwashah. It increases the text with obscure and ambiguous
features, recalls for the recipient of what is remarkable by these
terms and vocabulary specific Meanings and connotations.
One of these features is that the Sufi text takes the contents of the
spinning poem and manifestations in the appearance, but it avoids
the spinning meanings and devotes to the meanings of worship and
the meanings of the precipitous divine. Many of his poems and
Muwashah speak about love, beloved, wanderer, and other spinning
words. However, all of this symbolizes other connotations, such as
the euphoria of faith and the humiliation of meeting the beloved only
God, (the Almighty Allah), so that it is often difficult to distinguish
between the spinning experience and the mystical experience.
It should remark that the philosopher poet Ibn Arabi believes in the
theory of pantheism, there is no creator and creature "according to
this theory" only on the surface, but they are really one thing.
The paper focuses on the artistic characteristics of his Ibn Arabi's
poetry and Mwshahath. Moreover, it differentiates between the
spinner implications and Sufi characteristics. His sufi works, such
as The Meccan Illuminations (Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya) and D̲̲ah̲āʼir al-aʻlāq šarḥ turǧumān al-ašwāq, and others, represents Ibn Arabi
as the owner of a mystical school of poetry in Andalusia and the
Levant. It gives a depth of the meanings of Sufism and contented
building. Besides, he saved it from the prose, simplicity, and
superficial, and make it a deepening of the human spirit and treat
the major issues in existence, such as the relationship between man
and his creator mediated the deepest imagination and the highest
expression, therefore he is considered – sometimes – as Hegel of
Arabs. The concept of love, in Ibn Arabi's terms, has a long range, as making it synonymous notion with religion, Islam and love, both share the
meanings of submission, compliance, and obedience.
