Description:

In the article “Cheminement d’un humaniste” the author presents the results of her research on a small treatise Kitāb al-isrā’ ilā maqām al-asrā (Nigh Journey). She established a critical edition of the text in Arabic on the basis of a comparison of the limited number of manuscripts available in Dār al-Kutub al Masrīyya in Cairo. She then translated “Kitāb al-isrā’” into Polish. Kitāb al-isrā’ is one of the most important early works, written by Ibn Arabi after his great visionary experience in Fez, in 1198. It describes in rhymed prose his mystical ascension, meeting in the spiritual realities of the prophets in the seven heavens and being brought to the fullest realization of his own reality. Ibn Arabi’s ascension is a dream, a vision of a heart. These divine events determine the way forward for his ultimate role as the perfect man (insān kāmil) or the Seal of Muhammadian Sainthood.
