- Abstract
In this research, we talk about the symbolic houses that the Sufis and Spanish Saint Teresa de Jesus wrote about. Teresa of Jesus (d. 1582 AD) in her book “The Castillo Interior,” known in evangelical sanctity circles as “The Houses,” in which she mentioned the details of her Sufi journey through the seven palaces, which symbolically represent the houses through which the seeker travels to reach God, as it moves us from One house to another, all the way to the seventh house, where union with God Almighty is achieved, and this cannot be achieved unless the person walking through it is one of the righteous. These houses, whose details are very similar to those described to us by a Muslim Sufi who preceded the saint by nearly two and a half centuries, namely Ibn Arabi Al-Mursi(d. 638 AH /1240 AD) as he had recorded for us in a number of his works, especially “The Meccan Conquests”, the stages of the afterlife as mentioned in the Islamic heritage, with a difference in the symbolic vision as depicted by Ibn Arabi and according to his observations, although we have taken the legacy of this Muslim Sufi as a model for influence. Islamic in the Spanish Sufi heritage, especially since Ibn Arabi was born in Andalusia, the homeland of Saint Teresa, and grew up there when the Islamic civilization was superior, prosperous and generous.
