Great Shaykh Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi's Theory of Perfect Man
Abstract
In this Article, I have studied Ibn'Arabi's theory of Perfect Man. Because Ibn Arabi thinks that men have forgotten his past which was very glorious. The decline of Muslims position was very painful for Shaykh Akbar. He thinks every man can not be called "Caliph". The object of "Caliphate" is very for from the thoughts of a Man.Only a "Perfect Man" can be called "Caliph" other people should work under a "Perfect Man". If they want to achieve there previous position of Caliphate. He thinks except Perfect Man everyone is animal. From Romi to Iqbal all Muslim thinkers has derived their theories from Ibn Arabi's thoughts
