Mystical lifestyle consists of principles and bases that can be mentioned as its distinguishing features from other lifestyles, so one way to understand mystical life is to explain these principles and present them in a systematic structure. According to this, in the present article, the subject of discussion is the extraction of mystical life's principles by reflecting on Ibn Arabi's thought in a descriptive and analytical manner, which constructs the components of a mystic's lifestyle that has achieved the status of assuming the Divine character by going through the process of progression in the path and offers a model of living in terms of vision and also practicality that sets it apart from other lifestyles. These principles were referred to as "worship and freedom", "wisdom", "noble character traits", and "non-conflict", which are arranged together and form a systematic structure. While discussing these principles, the ontological and anthropological foundations that explained them were also discussed.

Keywords: mystical life, assuming the Divine character, worship and freedom, wisdom, noble character traits, non-conflict
