This lecture explores the rich tradition of divine love in Islamic thought, beginning with its Qur\u02beanic foundations and Prophetic traditions and culminating in the visionary metaphysics of the Andalusian sufi Mu\u1e25y\u012b al-D\u012bn Ibn \u02bfArab\u012b (d. 1240). In Islam, love is not a peripheral sentiment but a core principle of the human-divine relationship. The Qur\u02bean portrays God as al-Wad\u016bd<\/i> (the All-Loving), and love for God is presented as both a mark of faith and a path to nearness. Early Sufi figures such as R\u0101bi\u02bfa al-\u02bfAdawiyya and al-\u0120az\u0101l\u012b deepened this concept, portraying love for God as the highest spiritual station, motivated not by fear or hope, but by pure longing for the Divine. This lecture offers both a theological and interreligious reflection on how love in Islam \u2013 and more specifically in the thought of Ibn \u02bfArab\u012b – may contribute meaningfully to contemporary spiritual discourse and dialogue.<\/p>\n
