The Faṣṣ Yūsufī of Ibn ʿArabī is regarded as one of the most distinguished sections of Fuṣūṣ al-Ḥikam, in which luminous wisdom (ḥikma nūriyya) is attributed to the Prophet Joseph (Yūsuf, peace be upon him). In this faṣṣ, Ibn ʿArabī, relying on the ontological foundations of the unity of existence (waḥdat al-wujūd) and the theory of divine manifestation (tajallī), interprets the story of Joseph not merely as a historical narrative but as a symbolic representation of the spiritual journey of the human soul—from darkness to light, from form to meaning, and from multiplicity to unity.
Within this interpretation, Joseph is presented as the locus of manifestation of the divine Names of beauty and light, such as al-Nūr (the Light), al-Muṣawwir (the Fashioner), al-ʿAlīm (the All-Knowing), al-Jamīl (the Beautiful), al-Ḥakīm (the Wise), and al-Ḥaqq (the Real), since both the knowledge of dream interpretation and intrinsic beauty and luminosity are united in him. Through luminous wisdom, Ibn ʿArabī explicates the relationship between the imaginal realm (ʿālam al-mithāl), imagination (khayāl), and the knowledge of interpretation (taʿbīr), demonstrating that Joseph, as the Perfect Human (al-insān al-kāmil), is a mirror in which the divine Names are manifested at different levels of being.
Employing a descriptive–analytical method and drawing upon the text of the Faṣṣ Yūsufī and the commentaries of major figures such as al-Jandī, Qayṣarī, Khwārazmī, Pārsā, and other commentators, this article analyzes the manifestations of the divine Names and the symbolic meaning of the Yūsufī spiritual journey, and on this basis proposes a Yūsufī
