Ontological relationship of human actions with afterlife punishment which it is referred to "the embodiment of actions", has been particular importance to Muslim scholars, especially the mystics. Ibn 'Arabi, by introducing topics of anthropology and Perfect Man, takes a great step in explaining the subjects of the embodiment of actions and his commentators tried to proof this view. The present paper examines five attributes of Perfect Man, indicators such as the caliphate, disposition, ambition, comprehensiveness and knowledge. The comprehensiveness of Perfect Man causes the presence of all the worlds to him and the emergence of his intuitive knowledge to those worlds and revealing the inward entities to him. In addition that, Perfect Man with two attributes; disposition and ambition, is capable of creating external objects and proves the creation of inner actions by the soul in the afterlife.

According to the mystical attitude, a perfect man is the overall reflection of the Almighty and is an evidence for a perfect creature who manifests the willing of the inner, attributive, and active intuition of God, and in fact it manifests the divine attributes and qualities. That is why it implies that a perfect man is literally analogous to the divinity of God, in a sense and concept that though it is not God and lacks the dignity and power of God, due to the divine role as a substitution of God on earth, he possesses pure outstanding positions that makes him entitled to be called the decent substitution of God in the universe. This paper is based on the assumption that from Imam Khomeini’s standpoint, one can comprehend and extract an allegorical divinity for a perfect man in the world through which the perfect man can deal with the worldly affairs. Accordingly, to arrive at this point, it is necessary at first to have a discussion of the matter briefly from the standpoints of mystics and Islamic intellectuals and then present and explain Imam Khomeini’s thoughts respectively.

A mystic who has been promoted to the rank of “composure” tries to conquer the universe through the annihilating “ambition” and his deed becomes justified.His conquest is top down. A self-willing conquest. Just like the conquest of a slave by his master. And a bottom up conquest that is a conquest through a vehicle. Just like recipients that force the Almighty to manifest Himself before them.The mystic, in proportion to His comprehensiveness in some Excellencies, with his ambition causes creation of any face of Lord in any one of those Excellencies in the outside universe. Transferring the throne of Queen of Sheba is an evidence of a new creation and creation through ambition that of course is flowing all over the universe. A perfect saint who owns a total utility of the attributes of God will obtain the overall obedience of the universe.And anyone who like David or Solomon is assigned as caliph is also awarded the universe conquest, but the devotion of mystic to God and visiting nothing else but God in the universe prevents him from possessing the nature, leaving the possession to the Almighty God as the original power.
