The Single Monad Model of the Cosmos: Ibn Arabi’s Concept of Time and Creation

Rate this book
Ibn Arabi is the only scholar who was able to formulate a unique cosmological model that is capable of explaining our observations as well as many phenomena in physics and cosmology, and even solve some perplexing modern and historical riddles in science and philosophy such as the EPR paradox and Zeno paradoxes of motion.Moreover, the Single Monad Model explains for the first time in history the importance of the “week” as a basic unit of space and time together. This prodigious theory is based on the notion of the intertwining days where Ibn Arabi shows that at every instance of time there is indeed one full week of creation that takes place in the globe.Since its publication in 2008, this book has triggered an overwhelming response, and I hope this expanded edition will help promote further Ibn Arabi's wisdom that is still buried in his multitudes of books and treatises.

About the author

Mohamed Haj Yousef

Mohemed Haj Yousef is a writer and researcher in physics, cosmology, philosophy and Islamic thought, especially apropos mysticism and Ibn al-Arabi. He studied Physics at Aleppo University in 1989 and obtained the Master's degree from Cambridge University in 1992. After a period of teaching, he also got the PhD from the University of Exeter, in 2005, where he explored the Concept of Time in Ibn al-Arabi's Cosmology and compared it with the fundamental results of modern physics theories.
This pioneering research led to the Single Monad Model of the Cosmos, which was first published by Routledge in 2007, and edited again in 2014. Ibn Arabi is the only scholar who was able to formulate a unique cosmological model that is capable of explaining our observations as well as many phenomena in physics and cosmology, and even solve some perplexing modern and historical riddles in science and philosophy such as the EPR paradox and Zeno paradoxes of motion. Moreover, the Single Monad Model explains for the first time in history the importance of the “week” as a basic unit of space and time together.
In 2017, this model was developed further to the Duality of Time Theory, which explained how the cosmos is being dynamically created in the real (inner) flow of time, before it is kinetically developing in the outer (imaginary) level that we encounter. This innovative, genuinely-complex, time-time geometry solved many of the major persisting problems in Physics and Cosmology, and provided the first logical interpretation of Quantum Mechanics; leading to full Quantum Field Theory of Gravity and uniting the corporeal and incorporeal worlds into one perfectly-symmetrical space, as explained in the Ultimate Symmetry.
In the Ultimate Symmetry, Super-symmetry, and quantum gravity, are realized with the two complementary physical and psychical worlds, while the spiritual realm is governed by hyper-symmetry, which mirrors the previous two levels together, and all these three realms mirror the ultimate level of absolute oneness that describes the symmetry of the divine presence of God and His Beautiful Names and Attributes. This “ULTIMATE SYMMETRY” is a modern scientific account of the same ancient mystical, and greatly controversial, theory of the “Oneness of Being” that is often misinterpreted in terms of “pantheism”, but it is indeed the concluding gnostic knowledge of God and creation. Otherwise, how can we understand the origin of the cosmos, with both or either of its corporeal and incorporeal realms, without referring to its Originator!
Another book, in the Single Monad Model of the Cosmos series, is now under publishing, with the purpose to explain the mystery of time in a modest language away from any complex mathematical formulation or hefty philosophical pondering. This book is called the Chest of Time: Particle-Wave Duality from Time Confinement to Space Transcendence. This book is extracted and refined from the previous three volumes, to make it relevant and accessible to more readers who may be interested in the definitive conclusions, rather than any exhausting proofs. Passionate readers who require further, and more comprehensive arguments, are referred to the previous volumes inside the text, whenever some urging validation may be necessary.

It took me a bit to get through but it was worth it!

This was a pretty heavy read with a lot of information to process. I had to take a few breaks to process and fully grasp the information that was given. But I feel like a gained a lot of knowledge about time, the cosmos and creation. The author has obviously spent a lot of time studying and gathering information and he spent even more time organizing all the information he has gathered and putting it together in an easier to grasp manner for those of us who love to learn but are no where near as scientifically minded as he is! I really enjoyed learning all the concepts that he shared. I’m curious to read more from him, I’m sure he has a lot more to teach me!
