Abstract :
There isa letter fromIbn Al-Arabi to Fakhr Al-Din Al-Razi among the mystical works. Some believe that this letter is the same that Ibn Arabi has referred to it in two Chapters of his FUTUHAT MAKIYEH. He talks in FUTUHAT about Moral Virtues and Generositywhile the existingletter is Fakhr Razi's invitation to learn intuition and intuitive Knowledge. The question is this, whether the letter which exists in some of Ibn Arabis RASAIL is the same as it claims, or the current letter is a letter other than the letter which Ibn Arabi has written? In this article while the Ibn Arabi's letter to Fakhr Al-Din Al-Razi is translated, this result is obtained by the documentary analytical method that this letter is other than the letter that has been mentioned to it by Ibn Arabi in his FUTUHAT. Thus, it should be said that Ibn Arabi at least has written two letters for Fakhr Al-Din Al-Razi.
