A Study on Ibn Al-Arabi's A’yân Thâbita Based on Fusus Al-Hikam

A’yân Thâbita is one of the most important terms in Ibn Al-Arabi's mystical thesis. Although there are some concepts near to this kind of Islamic intellectual term, but for the first time Ibn Al-Arabi invented it. Exponents and Sufis followed him and attempted to used it in different and various issues in the field of mystical ontology. Based on Ibn Al-Arabi’s thesis, A’yân Thâbita is considered as one of God’s names and divine attributes and its positive and negative traits have an intermediary role in worldwide phenomenons and provide a particular trait which is definitely necessary to understand the theoretical mysticism, so it has an ontological position in the mystical system. In this study first we consider A’yân Thâbita from Ibn Al-Arabi’s viewpoint that he called it as one of God’s names and other divine descriptive names based on Fusus. The result shows that God’s all names have been reflected in God’s knowledge(elm-e-elah).
