Abstract

Muhyeddin IBN ARABI, one of the greatest theorists and founder of monism school of thought in Islamic mysticism, has discussed in details in the twenty third chapter of the fourth section of his book titled Futuhat Makkiah under the title of Fil Bahalil va Aemmatehem Fil Bahlelah about the divine MADNESS and their delicate behavior. IBN ARABI in his book calls them BAHALEIL and their MADNESS is taken to be from the sudden emergence of the unknown world. In his view, the dominance of such an emergence has caused them so intoxicated that made their ever ascension of their rationality to the spiritual world, however, without their tactfulness of cognition, God makes them talk wisely.The smashing of the mountain- like hearts of these people is caused by the manifestation of the divine grace just like the Fainted Moses due to the manifestation of God on the Mountain as well as the same panic coming to the Prophet Muhammad at the outset of the divine revelation. The difference between their MADNESS and the sensation of prophets is that God keeps their wisdom because of the prophet mission, but keeps the wisdom of mad people captured for himself. IBN ARABI had had some meetings with mad people and has welcome their wise and meaningful behaviors. He has mentioned the behavior and remarks of one of the greatest divine mad people in his short reports without mentioning his name, talking about his sympathy and condolence with him and some parts of his talking with him. To explain different divine mad people he has named some people such as Bohlul, Sa' doon, Abu Vahab, Fazel, and the like, while he has seen some of them to be in reflection andsome other ones being astonished. As claimed by himself, he has tasted the stage of divine MADNESS and has compared his own state of mind with Shebelli being mad and unconscious. He has explained on the prayers to be stranger to themselves and to the surroundings, and as well, his being within a vast source of light while praying and other wonderful state of mind unaware of himself.
