A Study of Accuracy of Existence of Theory of Nesab Ilmiyah According to Ibn Arabi, Relying on Narrations of infallibles

the issue of Names of God and their relationship with Him is of the complicated issues that obsessed Mutillah scholars. This complexity is doubled when mixed with the issue of Knowledge of God about Himself and the questions in this regard. The questions like: had God the knowledge about Himself before creation? What is the difference between the base of appearance and creation in Names of God? Muslim mystics like Ibn Arabi in order to answer these questions put the theory of Nesab Ilmiyah that says there is a bilateral Nesab and Izafah between Essence of God and Creation of His Names. But in Shia opinion each narration which is not from infallibles is not immune from mistakes and shortcoming and the narrations of infallibles are the only example of perfect mistake-less words. Therefore, in this study, first the opinion regarding Nesab Ilmiyah is explained and after that this theory is analyzed according narrations. This comparative study rejects this theory by contradiction which appear. Of the most significant contradictions we can mention difference of it with Bisatat and Unity of the essence of God.
