Dr Eric Winkel (Shu'ayb) has studied Ibn 'Arabi for three decades and has spent the last four years dedicated to producing the first translation of the 10,000 page Futuhat al-Makkiyah of Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi. The first two of the six sections have been published as pre-prints for feedback and correction, covering the sixteen journeys (books) in 4,448 pages. The work is based on the critical edition of Abd al-Aziz Sultan Mansoub, in Sana'a, who has generously guided this translator.
