Yazicizâde brothers and Ismail Haqqi Bursawi metaphysics of sufism

To wonder, to think, to know, and to guess, all these are concepts as old as human existence and peculiar to humans. To know which is old as human history leads to a grand question. Theories about the existence of God, the creation of the universe, and the meaning of the human being have focused on many different perspectives throughout history. Therefore, we encounter many different visions about God, the creation of the universe, and human nature. In my study, I examined the visions of God propounded by Sufis who describe themselves as truth-seeking people and tried to reveal their views and visions about human nature and the universe with different aspects. I have preferred to focus on Yazicizade Brothers and Ismail Haqqi Bursawi who are affiliated with the school of Ibn Arabi because the Sufi Tradition is liable to the tradition of Fiqh and Kalâm, especially about the visions and views of the human nature, the God and the creation of the universe before Ibn Arabi. I have examined firstly the position of Yazicizade Brothers and Ismail Haqqi Bursawi in the Akbari Tradition and the impacts of the views about the existence of Ibn Arabi on them. Also, I have examined their contribution to the idea of the unity of existence and analyzed the similar and various thoughts and approaches by reviewing their related works. Lastly, I have completed my work with the evaluation which is whether their thought and approaches propound a systematic Sufi metaphysics like Sadreddin Konevi or not.
