In the name of God
Question:
Among the contents attributed to Your Eminence on some websites, it is claimed that you support the gnosis of the author of Fusus al-Hikam (Ibn Arabi), please express your respectable opinion in this regard?
Answer:
I believe in the method of the great jurists of Twelver Shi‘ism in obtaining religious wisdom, which is in accordance with the verses of the Holy Qur’an and the traditions of the pure infallibles of the Household, peace be upon them, and I do not approve the above-mentioned method.
