I believe in the religion of Love, whatever direction its caravans may take, for Love is my religion and my faith.
Ibn ArabiWhile you are alive, your worldly self is like a collector of benefits from Allah's bounties, which come to you from myriads of hands.
Ibn ArabiWhen you know yourself, your 'I'ness vanishes and you know that you and Allah are one and the same.
Ibn ArabiMy heart has become capable of every form: It is a pasture for gazelles And a monastery for Christian monks, And the pilgrim's Ka'ba, And the tablets of the Torah, And the book of the Koran. I follow the religion of Love: Whatever way love's camel takes, That is my religion, my faith.
Ibn ArabiWhoever builds his faith exclusively on demonstrative proofs and deductive arguments, builds a faith on which it is impossible to rely. For he is affected by the negativities of constant objections. Certainty(al-yaqin) does not derive from the evidences of the mind but pours out from the depths of the heart.
Ibn Arabi
