This article studies how Ibn ‘Ajība explained the mystical relationship between love and sin in his esoteric commentary on the Qur’ān. I also will compare his mystical interpretation of these themes with other Sufi writers, mainly al-Qushayrī and Rūzbihān al-Baqlī, who are two of the exegetes that Ibn ‘Ajība quotes extensively, in order to determine his contribution to these themes.
