Treatise on Unity (attributed)

رسالة الأحدية (Risalat al-ahadiyya)

Ibn Arabi a caballo con dos discípulos (miniatura safaví)
byIbn Arabi

A short treatise on divine oneness and on self-knowledge as knowledge of God, formulated far more radically than Ibn Arabi does. For a century it was one of the most read texts "by Ibn Arabi" in the West, which explains why it is still reprinted under his name.
