Ibn 'Arabî's "hagiographical" work, the Ruh al-Quds fî munâsahat al-nafs is a masterpeice. In his introduction there is a vicious attack on contemporary Sufism, mentioning the adoption of Sufi dress, the khânaqâh system, and a twice-iterated "ban" on the Sufi practice of samâ'. However, self-criticism by "Sufi" authors is in no sense a new genre initiated by Ibn 'Arabî. Indeed, the Shaykh tells us here that al-Qushayrî "most severely rebukes them at the beginning of his Risâla". It remains to be seen then, what positive contribution Ibn 'Arabî offers in his criticisms and in particular: if companionship is now "flattery-based", how is it that in this corrupt age, Ibn 'Arabî himself manages to form over fifty meaningful companionships of which, moreover, he has recorded some but "kept quiet" concerning most?
The work is naturally divided into three sections of roughly equal length by those biographical accounts. More fundamentally, however, as we shall see, there is a thematic division corresponding to the classic Sufi itinerary of mi'râj (ascent), pp. 31-88; the ruju' (return), pp. 139-176; and the divine sphere (mushâhada) where these multiple mi'râjs and ruju's actually take place, pp. 88-139.

Universally known by the title of "Muhyi al-Din" (The Reviver of the Religion) and "al-Shaykh al-Akbar" (The Greatest Shaykh) Ibn 'Arabī (Arabic: ابن عربي) (July 28, 1165 - November 10, 1240) was an Arab Sufi Muslim mystic and philosopher. His full name was Abū 'Abdullāh Muḥammad ibn 'Alī ibn Muḥammad ibn al-`Arabī al-Hāṭimī al-Ṭā'ī (أبو عبد الله محمد بن علي بن محمد بن العربي الحاتمي الطائي).
Muhammad ibn al-Arabi and his family moved to Seville when he was eight years old. In 1200 CE, at the age of thirty-five, he left Iberia for good, intending to make the hajj to Mecca. He lived in Mecca for some three years, where he began writing his Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya (The Meccan Illuminations). In 1204, he left Mecca for Anatolia with Majd al-Dīn Isḥāq, whose son Ṣadr al-Dīn al-Qunawī (1210-1274) would be his most influential disciple.
In 1223, he settled in Damascus, where he lived the last seventeen years of his life. He died at the age of 76 on 22 Rabi' II 638 AH/November 10, 1240CE, and his tomb in Damascus is still an important place of pilgrimage.
A vastly prolific writer, Ibn 'Arabī is generally known as the prime exponent of the idea later known as Waḥdat al-Wujūd (literally Unity of Being), though he did not use this term in his writings. His emphasis was on the true potential of the human being and the path to realising that potential and becoming the perfect or complete man (al-insān al-kāmil).
Some 800 works are attributed to Ibn 'Arabā, although only some have been authenticated. Recent research suggests that over 100 of his works have survived in manuscript form, although most printed versions have not yet been critically edited and include many errors.
يأخذك شيخنا معه في رحلة نورانية تربوية نصحية إلى عالم النفس في حوار للنفس مع النفس. يمر بك لتسلم على شيوخه نساء ورجالا، ويجز بك في بحار الخلق لتتفكر في آدميتك وتنسى عنك الكبر الذي يودي بك إلى ادعاء الألوهية.. فتأدب في حضرة الشيخ، وتواضع تشرب كأس السر و الفتح، وافتح أبواب قلبك على مصراعيها تعلم شيئا من بعد ما كنت لا تعلم..
أن الحال فى العقل،والعقل فى الروح لا فى النفس،وأن الروح صاحب الملك،وأن الملك صاحب العلم والفراسة والإلهام واليمين والآخرة والذكر والحق واليقين.
يصور روح القدس البيئة الصوفية الأندلسية خلال الربع الأخير من القرن السادس الهجري يعكس روح ابن عربي الثائرة ضد الحكام والفقهاء والصوفية على وجه الخصوص السماع ثم يتحدث عن تجربة ابن عربي فى مكة ثم يعرض فلسفة ابن عربي حول فكرة الإنسان الكامل ومذهب وحدة الوجود وفي النهاية يعرض دراسة حول أسرار الحروف عند ابن عربي
يعتمد أسلوب ابن عربي على الاستطردات النفسية والرمزية والتلويح بالأسرار دون التصريح بها يتميز من وجهة نظري بقسوة في جلد الذات دون غيره من اقطاب الصوفية،كتابات ابن عربي تكشف البناء المحكم الذي تتجمع فيه تفاصيل مبدأ وحدة الوجود بمنهج نفسي علمي بشكل روحاني وهذا ما يميز فلسفته الصوفية
كتاب ممتع لأحد علماء التصوف الذين نتعلم منه الكثير ، الكتاب تم تحقيقه من قبل أستاذ جامعي موضوعي جدًا و أجاد في عرض الكتاب و توصيل معلومات و قدم عرض وافي للكتاب الخاص بابن عربي مع توثيق مدي دقة المعلومات المقدمة في الكتاب و نسبتها إلي ابن عربي من عدمه ، كما يقدم توثيق لما يرد في الكتاب من أحاديث و مدي سندها . الكتاب نفسه كنص لا يخلو من الطرافة في الحقيقة ببعض المواقف و الأمثلة التي يقدمها ابن عربي من لقاءاته و تجربة حياته و الجزء الخاص بعلم الحروف هو أكثر جزء ملتبس في الكتاب نظرًا لأن المعلومات نفسها التي يتم تقديمها تبدو بلا مدلول أو طريقة للاستدلال و الاختبار ولكن يبدو أن ابن عربي يعرضها من باب أنها نفحة أو وحي إلهي و لا يشير إلي مصادر مدققة و التزم المحقق بالأمر في عرضه و توضيح أماكن الالتباس بين ما كتبه ابن عربي في هذا الأمر و ما كتبه في كتاب الفتوحات المكية بخصوص نفس الأمر .. تجربة قراءة ممتعة .
