The "Fusus al-Hikam" is acknowledged to be a summary statement of the sufi metaphysics of the "Greatest Master, " Ibn 'Arabi (d.1240). It is also recognised that the "Fusus" is a work of great complexity both in its ideas and its style, and, over the centuries, numerous commentaries have been written on it. Each of the chapters of the "Fusas" is dedicated to a Qur'an prophet with whom a particular "wisdom" is associated. In "Sufi Metaphysics and Quranic Prophets: Ibn' Arabi's Thought and Method in the Fusus al-Hikam, " Ronald Nettler examines ten chapters from the "Fusus" which exemplify the ideas, method and perspective of the entire work. Concentrating on a detailed analysis of the text, the author brings out the profound connection and integration of scripture and metaphysics in the world-view of Ibn Arabi. "Sufi Metaphysics and Qur'anic Prophets" serves not only as an explication of Ibn Arabi's thought in the Fusus, but is also a great aid in the overall understanding of Ibn Arabi's thought.
