How do we define real Islamic teachings? For me, Sufism is the real heart of Islam. And in Sufism we find the concept of Wahdat al-Wujud. From Wikipedia: Ibn Arabi's doctrine of wahdat ul wujud focuses on the esoteric reality of creatures instead of exoteric dimension of reality. Therefore he interprets that wujud is one and unique reality from which all reality derives. The external world of sensible objects is but a fleeting shadow of the Real (al-Haq), God. God alone is the all embracing and eternal reality. ... To call wujud or Real Being "one" is to speak of the unity of the Essence. Peace |

No, there can not be, separation in a non-dual state, Islam is all about pleasing god, and worshipping. One is not separate from god, if there is such a thing as god. One is not separate from anyone or anything, in a non-dual state. Or else it is not non-dual. Soo as long as there is worship and concepts such as, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, there can not be non-duality. Non-duality incorporate all, and dismiss it at the same time.

However, in his Fustus, Ibn Arabi had to be very careful in what he wrote considering the fate of the Sufi Hallaj, who proclaimed "I AM the Truth" and was executed. (Hallaj is often called the Sufi Jesus for obvious reasons with a similar fate.) Ibn Arabi pointed carefully to non-duality by quoting the Koran and interpreting it in his own unique style lest he suffer the fate of Hallaj. |
