Al-Attas cautions that this Sufi conception of the ontological degrees of divine self-manifestation is not to be confused with Neoplatonic emanationism in which the role of the divine will is diminished and the 'lower' degrees of being gradually 'deteriorates' from the source and finally acquires a kind of ontic autonomy (Mysticism, 72-3). Despite its complexity, Netton establishes clearly that the early Ismaeli myth involves a blend of creationism (God willfully creates Kuni ex nihilo and commands him to create Qadar) with a full blown emanationism (starting with six hudud which emanate from Kuni). |
