Ibn Arabi

Reading the Qur'an which is limited to outward level is basically contrary to Islamic scientific traditions which give great attention to the inner aspects. As a result, the breadth of key concepts of Qur’anic teachings, including the teachings of jihad, became narrow and dry. That will trigger the issue of religious social pathology in the form of tolerance crisis, radicalism even terrorism. So an effort is needed to bring back Sufi interpretation of the verses of jihad that focuses on the inner dimension and not negate the outward dimension. The method used in this research is maudhu'i and descriptive-analytical interpretation. This study finds that jihad is an effort to encourage the soul to endure bodily difficulties and to oppose lust in everything that aims to pick up self-perfection. In Tafsīr Ibn 'Arabi, there are three meanings of jihad esoterically; First, jihad is an attempt to eliminate the reprehensible traits which brings up a concept of jihad: “the key to the success of jihād fī sabīlillah which is fanā bi kulliyāt or total self-annihilation”. Second, jihad is an effort towards maqām of human spiritual perfection which brings up a rule of jihad: “the higher or the more perfect a person is, the greater his jihad”. Third, jihad is an attempt to sacrifice wealth, body and soul. This sacrifice is a result of fulfillment of the above principles of jihad

Ibn Arabi

<p>This paper will discuss the meaning of freedom in the discourse of Sufi thought, especially of Ibn ‘Arabî. This is based on the consideration that Sufism before Ibn ‘Arabî’s more focused on ritualistic orientation for students and only revealed variant of Sufi’s expressions, both on <em>maqâmât</em> and <em>ahwâl</em>. The presence of Ibn ‘Arabî, therefore, became the turning point in the discourse of Sufism by expressing his beliefs in the theoretical formulation. The doctrine of Sufism—which previously only implicitly contained in the words of the Sufi shaykh—in the hands of Ibn ‘Arabî flashed into an open, theoretical, and obvios and thus opened the door for anyone who has a high intelligence in reflecting at once and realizing the metaphysical theories through operational forms. Therefore, this article will discuss some of the key concepts in the thought of Ibn ‘Arabî including the meaning of freedom (<em>al</em><em>-</em><em>hurrîyah</em>) in Sufism, <em>maqâm</em><em> </em><em>hurrîyah</em>, and <em>hâ</em><em>l</em> <em>h</em><em>urrîyah</em> obtained by the Sufis during their spiritual journey.</p>

The Aesthetic

The Italian poet Dante Alighieri (1265–1321) is invoked several times in the work of Giorgio Agamben, often in passing to stress a point, as when discussing the political relevance of désoeuvrement (KG 246); to develop a thought, as in the articulation of the medieval idea of imagination as the medium between body and soul (S, especially 127–9); or to explain an idea, as in the case of the artistic process understood as the meeting of contradictory forces such as inspiration and critical control (FR, especially 48–50). So while Agamben does not engage with Dante systematically, he refers to him constantly, treating the Florentine poet as an auctoritas whose presence adds critical rigour and credibility. Identifying and relating the instances of these encounters is useful since they highlight central aspects of Agamben’s thought and its development over the years, from the first writings, such as Stanzas, to more recent texts, such as Il fuoco e il racconto and The Use of Bodies. The significance of Agamben’s reliance on Dante can be divided into two categories: the aesthetic and the political. The following discussion will address each of these categories separately, but will also emphasise the philosophical continuity that links the discussion of the aesthetic with that of the political. While in the first instance Dante is offered as an example of poetic innovation, especially in relation to the use of language and imagination, in the second he is invoked as a forerunner of new forms of life. Mediality and potentiality are the two pivots connecting the aesthetic and the political.
