Predstavljanje Ibn Arebija u tekstu Jusufa Ramića
Representation of Ibn Arabi in the Text authored by Jusuf Ramić

Summary/Abstract: In this paper, we will analyze the representation of Ibn Arabi in the text by Jusuf Ramić entitled “Ibn Arabi and his method of interpreting the Qur’an”, published in the VIS Gazette in 1977. At the very beginning, we will explain the historical background and reasons why Ibn Arabi was not written about in the publications of the Islamic (religious) community in Bosnia and Herzegovina for 40 years. Then, we will analyze the text itself and compare quotations from the text with the literature available at the time the text was written, as well as with the current research results related to Ibn Arabi’s work. We will refer to certain misconceptions that still follow Ibn Arabi’s name, such as the authorship of certain works, and the background of certain sayings/views. In the last part of the paper, we will discuss certain aspects of Ibn Arabi’s method of interpreting the Qur’an. In the conclusion, we will summarize the results of the analysis, attempting to position the text within the wider picture of the academic study of Tasawwuf in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the SFRY period.
