A brilliant new introduction to Sufi philosophy, a tradition traced back to the works of Sufism’s most renowned master, Ibn ‘Arabi (d. 1240). To help bridge the gap between specialized studies of Ibn ‘Arabi and a more general readership, Dissolving into Being highlights several of his insights, on subjects ranging from the origin of the world and the reality of love, to the nature of life after death, destiny, peace and conflict, and religious diversity, all through an exploration of his masterwork Gemstones of Wisdom (Fusus al-hikam). Will appeal to anyone interested in Sufism and how it impacts on contemporary issues, as well as those with a more specific interest in the writings of Ibn ‘Arabi.

Associate Professor and Chair of Religion and Culture at the University of Winnipeg, author of Contemporary Sufism: Piety, Politics, and Popular Culture (2018) and Unveiling Sufism: From Manhattan to Mecca (2017).
