PERSPEKTIF IBN ‘ARABI TENTANG KONSEP KEBEBASAN DALAM TASAWUF
Abstract: This paper will
discuss the meaning of freedom in the discourse of Sufi thought, especially of
Ibn ‘Arabî. This is based on the consideration that Sufism before Ibn ‘Arabî’s
more focused on ritualistic orientation for students and only revealed variant
of Sufi’s expressions, both on maqâmât and ahwâl. The presence of Ibn ‘Arabî,
therefore, became the turning point in the discourse of Sufism by expressing
his beliefs in the theoretical formulation. The doctrine of Sufism—which
previously only implicitly contained in the words of the Sufi shaykh—in the
hands of Ibn ‘Arabî flashed into an open, theoretical, and obvios and thus
opened the door for anyone who has a high intelligence in reflecting at once
and realizing the metaphysical theories through operational forms. Therefore,
this article will discuss some of the key concepts in the thought of Ibn ‘Arabî
including the meaning of freedom (al-hurrîyah) in Sufism, maqâm hurrîyah, and
hâl hurrîyah obtained by the Sufis during their spiritual journey.
