We will see how the science of letters is a knowledge of God\u2019s creation, which He creates with His Word, where the existentiation verb, <span class=\"html-italic\">Kun<\/span> (Be!), plays a fundamental role. This imperative pronounced by God when He wants something to exist appears in the Qur\u02be\u0101n in reference to Jesus. This prophet, being a word and a breath that have their origin in God, receives the knowledge of every word, which is formed by letters. Through this knowledge, Jesus can participate in God\u2019s creative power with His permission, and with the knowledge of alchemy, he will have transformative and healing powers. As this is a science of healthy proportions, Ibn \u02bfArab\u012b credits Jesus with the knowledge of alchemy due to the impeccable balance he maintained between his human and spiritual natures. This article results from reading his immense work, approached from both theological and religious science methodologies.&#8221;<\/p>\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">&#13;\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2077-1444\/14\/7\/897\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/div>&#13;\n<\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"featured_media":28207,"template":"","class_list":["post-28265","article","type-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"date_tournage":"","yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Science of Letters and Alchemy in Ibn \u02bfArab\u012b\u2019s Jesus - Pluriel<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/pluriel.fuce.eu\/article\/the-science-of-letters-and-alchemy-in-ibn-\u02bfarabis-jesus\/?lang=en\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The Science of Letters and Alchemy in Ibn \u02bfArab\u012b\u2019s Jesus - Pluriel\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"&#8220;This article briefly presents what the science of letters and alchemy meant for Ibn \u02bfArab\u012b and explains why this Sufi mystic attributes the highest degree of these sciences to Jesus.
