Wahdat-ul-Wujood or Wahdat al-Wujud (Arabic: وحدة الوجود) the "Unity of Being" is a Muslim Sufi philosophy emphasizing that 'there is no existence except the ultimate truth', that was formulated by Ibn Arabi. Wahdat-ul-Wujood spread through the teachings of the Sufis like Shaikh Abu Ali Sindhi and Bayazid Bustami. Embellished and adored by Shaikh Fareeduddin Attar and propounded and codified by Shaikhul Akbar Mohyuddin Ibn Arabi. Some have termed the doctrine of Wahdat-ul-Wujood as pantheism. The Bektashi sect places much emphasis on the concept of Wahdat-ul-Wujood. This mystic sufi philosophy found conducive soil in many parts of South Asia as most of the saints and sages became dedicated disciples of Wahdat-ul-Wujood.
