Two main [[Sufism|Sufi]] philosophies prevail on this topic. {{transl|ar|Waḥdat al-wujūd}} literally means "the Unity of Existence" or "the Unity of Being."<ref>{{cite book |editor1-last=Arts |editor1-first=Tressy |title=Oxford Arabic Dictionary |date=2014 |publisher=Oxford University Press |location=Oxford |isbn=9780199580330}}</ref> {{transl|ar|Wujūd}}, meaning "existence" or "presence", here refers to [[God in Islam|God]]. On the other hand, {{transl|ar|waḥdat al-shuhūd}}, meaning "Apparentism" or "[[Monotheism]] of Witness", holds that God and his creation are entirely separate. Some scholars have claimed that the difference between the two philosophies differ only in [[semantics]] and that the entire debate is merely a collection of "verbal controversies" which have come about because of [[Ambiguity|ambiguous language]]. However, the concept of the relationship between God and the universe is still actively debated both among Sufis and between Sufis and non-Sufi [[Muslims]]. == Waḥdat al-Wujūd (unity of existence)== {{further|Wujud}} The mystical thinker and theologian [[Abu Saeed Mubarak Makhzoomi]] discussed this concept in his book called ''Tohfa Mursala''.<ref>{{cite book | url = http://www.yanabi.com/index.php?/topic/376532-tohfa-mursala-sharif-lectures-by-khawaja-ghulam-qutab-din-faridi-dba/ | title = Tohfa Mursala by Abu Saeed Mubarak Makhzoomi | publisher = yanabi.com | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160518214710/http://www.yanabi.com/index.php?%2Ftopic%2F376532-tohfa-mursala-sharif-lectures-by-khawaja-ghulam-qutab-din-faridi-dba%2F | archive-date = 18 May 2016 | df = dmy-all }}</ref> An [[Andalusia]]n Sufi saint [[Ibn Sabin]]<ref>[[Seyyed Hossein Nasr|S.H.

But the [[Sufi]] [[saint]] who is most characterized in discussing the ideology of Sufi metaphysics in deepest details is [[Ibn Arabi]].<ref name="muslimphilosophy1">{{Cite web|url=http://www.muslimphilosophy.com/ip/rep/H022.htm|title=Ibn al-'Arabi, Muhyi al-Din (1164-1240)|website=www.muslimphilosophy.com}}</ref> He employs the term wujud to refer to God as the Necessary [[Being]]. He also attributes the term to everything other than God, but he insists that wujud does not belong to the things found in the [[cosmos]] in any real sense. Rather, the things borrow wujud from [[God]], much as the [[earth]] borrows light from the [[sun]]. The issue is how wujūd can rightfully be attributed to the things, also called "[[wikt:entity|entities]]" (aʿyān). From the perspective of [[tanzih]], [[Ibn Arabi]] declares that wujūd belongs to [[God]] alone, and, in his famous phrase, the things "have never smelt a whiff of wujud." From the point of view of [[tashbih]], he affirms that all things are wujūd's self-disclosure ([[tajalli]]) or self-manifestation (ẓohur). In sum, all things are "He/not He" (howa/lāhowa), which is to say that they are both God and not God, both wujud and not wujud.<ref name=autogenerated1>Imaginal worlds, William Chiittick (1994), pg.53</ref> In his book Fusus –al-Hikam,<ref>{{cite book|author=Ibn Arabi|url=http://www.sufi.ir/books/download/english/ibn-arabi-en/fusus-al-hikam-en.pdf|title=Fasus-al-Hikam}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|author= Ibn-e-Arabi|url=https://bewley.virtualave.net/fusus.html|title=Fasus-al-Hikam}}</ref> Ibn-e-Arabi states that "wujūd is the unknowable and inaccessible ground of everything that exists. God alone is true wujūd, while all things dwell in nonexistence, so also wujūd alone is nondelimited (muṭlaq), while everything else is constrained, confined, and constricted. Wujūd is the absolute, infinite, nondelimited reality of God, while all others remain relative, finite, and delimited". [[Ibn Arabi]]'s doctrine of wahdat ul wujud focuses on the esoteric ([[Batin (Islam)|batin]]) reality of creatures instead of exoteric ([[Zahir (Islam)|zahir]]) 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 [[eternity|eternal]] reality. Whatever exists is the shadow ([[tajalli]]) of the Real and is not independent of God. This is summed up in [[Ibn Arabi]]'s own words: "[[Glory (religion)|Glory]] to Him who created all things, being Himself their very [[essence]] (ainuha)".<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.muslimphilosophy.com/hmp/chp20.doc|title=A History of Muslim Philosophy, pg. 409.}}</ref> To call wujud or Real Being "one" is to speak of the unity of the Essence. In other terms, it is to say that Being—Light in itself—is nondelimited (mutlaq), that is, [[infinity|infinite]] and [[absolute (philosophy)|absolute]], undefined and indefinable, indistinct and indistinguishable. In contrast, everything other than Being—every existent thing (mawjûd)—is [[distinction (philosophy)|distinct]], [[defined]], and limited (muqayyad). The Real is incomparable and transcendent, but it discloses itself (tajallî) in all things, so it is also similar and immanent. It possesses such utter nondelimitation that it is not delimited by nondelimitation. "God possesses Nondelimited Being, but no delimitation prevents Him from delimitation. On the contrary, He possesses all delimitations, so He is nondelimited delimitation"<ref name=autogenerated1 /><ref name="auto">{{Cite book|url=https://plato.stanford.edu/archives/spr2020/entries/ibn-arabi/|title=The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy|first=William|last=Chittick|chapter=Ibn â€˜ArabÃ® |editor-first=Edward N.|editor-last=Zalta|date=24 February 2020|publisher=Metaphysics Research Lab, Stanford University|via=Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy}}</ref> On the highest level, wujūd is the absolute and nondelimited reality of God, the "Necessary Being" (wājib al-wujūd) that cannot not exist. In this sense, wujūd designates the Essence of God or of the Real (dhāt al-ḥaqq), the only reality that is real in every respect. On lower levels, wujūd is the underlying substance of "everything other than God" (māsiwāAllāh)—which is how [[Ibn Arabi]] and others define the "cosmos" or "universe" (al-ʿālam). Hence, in a secondary meaning, the term wujūd is used as shorthand to refer to the whole [[cosmos]], to everything that exists. It can also be employed to refer to the existence of each and every thing that is found in the [[universe]].<ref name=autogenerated2>Imaginal worlds, William Chiittick(1994), pg.15</ref> God's 'names' or '[[Property (philosophy)|attributes]]', on the other hand, are the relationships which can be discerned between the [[Essence]] and the [[cosmos]]. They are known to God because he knows every object of knowledge, but they are not existent entities or ontological qualities, for this would imply plurality in the godhead.<ref name="muslimphilosophy1"/><ref name="auto"/> Ibn 'Arabî used the term "effusion" (fayd) to denote the act of creation. His writings contain expressions which show different stages of creation, a distinction merely logical and not actual. The following gives details about his vision of creation in three stages: the Most Holy Effusion (al-fayd al-aqdas), the Holy Effusion (al-fayd al-muqaddas) and the Perpetual Effusion (al-fayd al-mustamirr).<ref name=autogenerated3>{{Cite web|url=https://ibnarabisociety.org/unity-of-being-in-ibn-arabi-souad-hakim/|title=Unity of Being in Ibn Arabi|date=26 December 2019 }}</ref> Waḥdat al-wujūd spread through the teachings of the [[Sufi]]s like Qunyawi, Jandi, Tilimsani, Qayshari, Jami etc.<ref name=autogenerated4>Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Islamic Philosophy from Its Origin to the Present(2006), pg76</ref> The noted scholar [[Muhibullah Allahabadi]] strongly supported the doctrine.<ref>{{cite book|last=Hadi|first=Nabi|title=Dictionary of Indo-Persian Literature|page=427 |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=qjJmzdJFOHwC&pg=PA427|access-date=2014-11-10|year=1995|publisher=Abhinav Publications|isbn=978-81-7017-311-3|chapter=MuhhibbullahIlahabadi, Shaikh}}</ref> [[Sachal Sarmast]] and [[Bulleh Shah]] two Sufi poets from present day Pakistan, were also ardent followers of Waḥdat al-wujūd. It is also associated with the ''Hamah Ust'' ([[Persian Language|Persian]] meaning "He is the only one") philosophy in South Asia. ===Tashkīk=== Tashkīk or gradation<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=3WwAAgAAQBAJ&q=tashkik&pg=PA93|title=tashkik|isbn=9781136858598|last1=Moris|first1=Zailan|date=5 November 2013|publisher=Routledge }}</ref> is closely associated with Sadrian interpretation<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.muslimphilosophy.com/ip/rep/H027.html|title=index|website=www.muslimphilosophy.com}}</ref> of waḥdat al-wujūd. According to this school, the reality and [[existence]] are identical which means existence is one but graded in intensity. This methodology was given a name of tashkik al-wujud and it thus explains that there is gradation of existence that stand in a vast hierarchical chain of being (marāṭib al-wujūd) from floor (farsh) to divine throne (ʿarsh), but the wujūd of each existent ''māhīyya'' is nothing but a grade of the single reality of wujūd whose source is God, the absolute being (al-wujūd al-mutlaq). What differentiates the wujūd of different existents is nothing but wujūd in different degrees of strength and weakness. The universe is nothing but different degrees of strengths and weaknesses of wujūd, ranging from intense degree of wujūd of arch-angelic realities, to the dim wujūd of lowly dust from which Adam was made.<ref>Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Islamic Philosophy from Its Origin to the Present, pg 78</ref> ==Opposition to Wahdat al-Wujud== Sufi metaphysics has been a subject to criticism by most non-Sufis; in [[Al-Andalus]], where most of the Muslim scholars were either [[Zahiri]]tes or [[Maliki]]tes preferring the [[Ash'ari]]te [[Islamic theology|creed]], Sufi metaphysics was considered blasphemy and its practitioners blacklisted.<ref name=arabi169>Alexander D.

One example was ''waḥdat asḥ-shuhūd'', which was formulated by [['Ala' al-Dawla Simnani]] (1261–1336), and would go on to attract many followers in India, including [[Ahmed Sirhindi]] (1564–1624), who provided some of the most widely accepted formulations of this doctrine in the Indian sub-continent.<ref name=autogenerated4 /><ref>'Tasawwuf' book in Urdu by Syed Waheed Ashraf</ref> Sirhindi wrote that one should discern the existence of the universe from the absolute and that the absolute does not exist because of existence but because of his essence.<ref>MaktoobatRabbaniyah</ref> ===Response to criticism=== Some later Sufis, such [[Shah Waliullah Dehlawi]] (1703–1762), tried to reconcile the doctrines of ''waḥdat al-wujūd'' (unity of being) of Ibn Arabi and ''waḥdat ash-shuhūd'' (unity in conscience) of Sirhindi by downplaying the differences between the two as being based more on terminology than substance.<ref>G. N.
