(1) Philosophers of Mecca, like Amr ibn Hisham (d. 624 CE) the Abu Jahl, who held that something that has ceased to exist cannot come back itself and that the idols were manifestations of the One, were influenced by the prevailing neoplatonism of Levant and North Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Few centuries later, in the Abbasid period, Indian and Greek mythologies were translated into Arabic and the realm of mysticism or Sufism began to thrive among Muslims. In the post-Abbasid period, Ibn Arabi (d. 1240 CE), revived mysticism and the number of saints greatly grew after him. They were funded by local rulers who trusted their supermatural claims and hoped to use their spiritual powers against political foes. The mystics lived a life of abstinence in places called \u201cKhanqah\u201d and trained their disciples in the those buildings who were young boys.<\/p>\n<p>Sexual exploitation of young boys was prevalent during that time.

They require the attention, love, compassionate gaze, and affection of these educators, making this love a justifiable need. The allure of young boys in the hearts of older men and the fondness for the beauty of fresh youth is a divine gift, facilitating teachers in imparting literature, nurturing their developing spirits towards perfection, instilling noble life goals, and enabling self-realization. This inclination to guide and inspire is inherent, for God would not have instilled such love in the hearts of scholars and intelligent individuals without reason. The fact that this affection is found in sensitive souls and tender hearts, rather than in those who are cold-hearted and devoid of emotion, serves as evidence of its inherent benefits, wisdom, and righteous purpose.\u201d (4)<\/p>\n<p>It is not surprising that mystics such as Mulla Sadra who regard their feelings as sacred truths (al-ilm al-huduri al-ishraqi) make up theories about their sexual fantasies. But in today&#8217;s age, if a teacher is engaged in this sort of love with his student, he should be fired immediately. A teacher who prioritizes physical attractions and body, instead of focusing on the mind of a pupil, undermines education. They must never exploit their position of power to engage in illicit behavior with vulnerable children.<\/p>\n<h2>See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/ebnearabi.com\/en\/2023\/07\/16\/mulla-sadras-philosophy-is-a-dead-horse\/\">Mulla Sadra\u2019s philosophy is a dead horse<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>1.
