the Oneness of Being" (translated by Cecilia Twinch) have been

'Abū 'Abdullāh Muḥammad ibn 'Alī ibn Muḥammad ibn `Arabī
al-Ḥātimī aṭ-Ṭāʾī  was a Sufi mystic, poet, and philosopher
born in Murcia, Spain on the 17th of Ramaḍān (26 July 1165 AD).
He was one of the great mystics of all time. Through the richness
of his personal experience and the constructive power of his
intellect, he made a unique contribution to Shi'ite Sufism. He
was considered a Saint.  After his death, Ibn Arabi's
teachings quickly spread throughout the Islamic world. His
writings were not limited to the Muslim elites, but made their
way into other ranks of society through the widespread reach of
the Sufi orders. Arabi's work also popularly spread through works
in Persian, Turkish, and Urdu.
