Summary/Abstract: In the written heritage of Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabi, a special place occupies his work Fusūs al-Hikam (the Bezels of Wisdom) considered by many to be the summary of his theosophical and mystical thought. However, little is known that he also wrote a shortened version of this work entitled Naqsh al-Fusūs (the Pattern of the Fusūs), which is discussed in this paper. Naqsh (the Pattern), in the abbreviated form, contains all the topics discussed in Fusūs and presents them in an extremely concise form in only ten pages of text. A commentary on this work was written by a famous Persian polymath Molla Jāmī, while the translation into English by William Chittick was used in the paper.
