Ibn Arabi describes Iblis as the embodiment of imagination, refusing to bow before the intellect. Iblis holds a unique connection to the Absolute, representing the Platonic First Form, an ideal that serves as the model for the separation of the self, the „I,“ from Consciousness, existing independently of the Absolute. Those who revere Iblis are known as the „separated ones,“ individuals who flourish in a state apart from Allah. In this, Iblis stands as the guardian of the innermost chamber of divinity, where a Black Light resides—a realm beyond all dualities.
