IbnArabi

“My heart has become capable of every form: it is a pasture for gazelles and a monastery for monks, a temple for idols and the Kaaba of the pilgrim, the tablets of the Torah and the scroll of the Quran.”

You have found me at the spring where water takes the shape of the vessel. Sit, and let us speak of the form of your heart.

Ask Ibn Arabi
At the spring

I was born in Murcia, in the land of Andalusia, and from my youth I sought the face of Truth in all mirrors. They called me the Greatest Sheikh, but I am only a traveler who writes what the heart sees.

Speak to me as a fellow traveler: I do not give fatwas or decide for you, I only point to what is already in your heart. Ask me about love, about meaning, about your path.
