Dhū al‐Nūn (English spelling)
796 koro-861
An Egyptian-born Islamic mystic. After studying Islamic studies in Cairo, he traveled from Mecca to Damascus to study as a Sufi, and in his later years was temporarily imprisoned for preaching mystical thought to the masses. He recognized the importance of "love" for God, and believed that if one mastered the process of training with his guidance, one would reach the state of wajd (ecstasy) in which one could see the face of God. He called this realization ma'rifa (sensory knowledge), borrowing from the idea of ​​gnosis (mystical knowledge), and made a great contribution to the theorization of mystical thought.

エジプト生れのイスラム神秘主義思想家。カイロでイスラム諸学を修めた後,メッカからダマスクスに遊学してスーフィーとしての修行を積み,晩年には大衆に神秘主義思想を説いたかどで一時投獄された。神に対する〈愛〉の重要性を認め,その導きによって修行過程を極めれば,神の顔を目のあたりにするワジュド(恍惚)の域に達するとした。この時の認識を,グノーシス(神秘的知識)の思想を援用してマーリファ(感性的知識)と呼び,神秘主義思想の理論化に大きく貢献した。
