This article explores the philosophical and mystical legacy of Ibn Arabi, known as Shaykh al-Akbar, and examines the relevance of his teachings in the context of modern ethical challenges. In an era characterized by globalization, cultural polarization, and spiritual crises, Ibn Arabi's concept of Wahdat al-Wujud (Unity of Existence) and his emphasis on universal love offer a profound framework for fostering pluralism and moral integrity. The study analyzes how his metaphysical insights can serve as a foundation for inter-religious dialogue and the development of a more compassionate global ethic.
