The "Fusus al-Hikam" is acknowledged to be a summary statement of the sufi metaphysics of the "Greatest Master," Ibn 'Arabi (d.1240). It is also recognised that the "Fusus" is a work of great complexity both in its ideas and its style; and, over the centuries, numerous commentaries have been written on it. Each of the chapters of the "Fusas" is dedicated to a Qur'an prophet with whom a particular "wisdom" is associated. In "Sufi Metaphysics and Quranic Prophets: Ibn' Arabi's Thought and Method in the Fusus al-Hikam," Ronald Nettler examines ten chapters from the "Fusus" which exemplify the ideas, method and perspective of the entire work. Concentrating on a detailed analysis of the text, the author brings out the profound connection and integration of scripture and metaphysics in the world-view of Ibn Arabi. "Sufi Metaphysics and Qur'anic Prophets" serves not only as an explication of Ibn Arabi's thought in the Fusus, but is also a great aid in the overall understanding of Ibn Arabi's thought.
