Talk:Abu Bakr ibn al-Arabi

Arab influence
Ibn Arabi was an Arab who lived in a state that was founded by the Ummayads, Al-Andalus. the Ummayads are from the Banu Ummayah tribe (a.k.a. Banu Abd-ashams tribe) from Mecca, Arabia. In other words it is an Arab Muslim state which at one time also governed Arabia, where it originally came from. However, the article claims that ibn Al-Arabi lived in a civilization that was 'particularly generated by non-Arab, non-Muslim influences'. this claim isn't supported by primary sources. Furthermore, al-Andalus was Governed by tribes who originally come from Arabia: Arabic was the De-facto state language of al-Andalus and mosques were particularly prevalent (indicating Islamic influence). In fact, the greatest architectural achievements are mosques, like the Great Mosque of Cordoba. Claiming that the culture was non-Muslim or non-Arab in its influence seems farfetched and unfounded. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.223.174.74 (talk) 22:12, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

Ugly blocks of text
The information and sources provided in this article are excellent, but the formatting is just downright awful. It will be time consuming, but this article needs someone to add some section headings and inter-Wiki links to break the monotony. MezzoMezzo (talk) 09:21, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
