Abstract :

Abstract Nature and the environment have been given to mankind as a divine gift, and for Muslims around the World, the Qur'an, Hadith and Sunnah are known as authentic messages for spiritual and behavioral guidance on how humans should react to protect the environment and safety. Muslim thinkers and mystics have also raised issues based on these sources that can open the way for the protection of nature and the environment with a mystical approach. This research was conducted with the aim of investigating Ibn Arabi's mystical view of nature and its results to deal with the environmental crisis.This research is part of descriptive documentary and library studies. In this research, information is obtained by referring to Ibn Arabi's opinions. And the books and articles written about the mystical-ecological perspective have been obtained.The results obtained from his research showed that in Ibn Arabi's reading of existence, the concept of manifestation has a high potential in environmental ethics. Ibn Arabi's thoughts about the manifestation of God in nature are a continuation of the previous thoughts, but Ibn Arabi emphasizes nature more and explains his thoughts in more detail to the manifestation of God in Nature. According to Ibn Arabi, Nature is the channel of God's grace. Human active participation in the spiritual world causes light to enter the natural realm. Due to the intimate relationship between man and Nature, the inner state of man is reflected in the outer order of things. Ibn Arabi's thoughts provide an understanding of the existence of God's manifestations in Nature, which can be the basis for the necessity of protecting nature due to its position as the manifestation of God
