Ibn Arabi, Dhu'l Nun and the Alchemy of Red Sulphur - Paul Ferguson - 10-17-2025
"The paper argues that Ibn ʿArabī presents an unconventional view of Pharaoh’s fate, suggesting he receives divine mercy rather than condemnation. This perspective challenges traditional narratives and highlights Ibn ʿArabī's belief in God's encompassing mercy. Furthermore, it explores alchemy not merely as a physical process but as a means of inner transformation, linking it to Sufi practices and the broader theme of human development. The paper’s first part delves into these ideas, particularly through the lens of the ‘divine art’ in Ibn ʿArabī's work, and sets the stage for subsequent discussions on futuwwa and further alchemical influences."
