The Ontological Axioms in Ibn Arabi's Mysticism

This paper is concerned to provide an overview of Ibn Arabi's ontology through the axioms, which are either implicit or explicit in his works. The axioms to be considered are those concerned with the Divine and Created Orders of Being. They are both described and explained in order to show their role in the explanation of Being and its orders. The axioms mentioned in this paper are thought to be enough to picture the totality of Ibn Arabi's ontology, although there may be other axioms that can help give a more detailed picture.
