        Mohayyamin is a word used in IbnArabi’s school of thought and the sublime philosophy concerning the spirits or angels enfatuated in God and the Almighty, frenzied and admiring at the same time, while having no knowledge of themselves, nor the creation and human being. Therefore, they are absolute spirits and on account of their highness they are called angels. Thus, they are not obliged to prostrate to man. Of course, sometimes they are called cherubs. Some of the sublime philosophers have compared them with those “Egyptian illuminators” in Illumination philosophy. These spirits as a result of the self-manifestation of God are created in the order of compassionate spirits. In the categories of mystics ‘singles’ could be assumed as the manifestation of their souls.in some aspects, they are somehow superior to sublime items whereas in other aspects they are equal in their order. Moreover, in the attitudes of some scholars such as Mollasadra, these spirits are superior to angels though viewed by Gheysari they are a part of them. Manuscript profile
