Ibn  Arab 's Letter to Fakhr al-D n al-R z : A Study and Translation

Rustom, Mohammed

doi:10.1093/jis/ett071

“…Probably the best way to summarize this is by what attributed to Ibn Arabi describing Ibn Sina ʹIt is a wonder how far this blind man reached with his crutchʹ, blindness here refer to blindness to unveiling (kashf), and the crutch refer to rational investigation, or Iqbal 'When Ibn Sina was looking for the traces of the caravan, Rumi was lifting the veil from the face of the beloved'. However, there are several strict criteria [30,46,49] that should be met for this source of knowledge, this was the subject of many disagreements between the Kalam scholars and the Sufis [31,56], and between the Sufis themselves [30,46,49].…”

The recent remarkable progress in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has renewed the discussion on the possibility of human-level AI. Despite the difficulty of the problem and the presence of many large gaps and challenges, most people working in the field think that human-level AI is achievable, but they disagree on the date. In this paper, I briefly discuss the possibility of human-level AI from the perspective of two traditions in the Islamic world, namely Kalam and Sufism, and despite their different mode of investigation, they converge to the same conclusion on this topic.
