One of the consequences of the social changes of the last century is the attention to women's rights and their individual and social status, especially in spiritual schools. Among Islamic thinkers, Ibn Arabi has described the position of women from a mystical-taste perspective and expressed their similarities and differences with men. The main question of the present article is what are the similarities and differences between women and men in Ibn Arabi's mystical ontology and what are the criticisms of these aspects? In a critical analytical approach to Ibn Arabi's views, the author has organized his view into two parts: similarities and differences. The result of this research is the sharing of men and women in the essence of humanity; in perfection and also in achieving the position of polarity. What is the difference between them in aspects such as: the subordination of women to men in the process of creation; The superiority of men over women intellectually and religiously; The active identity of the man along with the passive identity of the woman; The more complete intuition of God in woman; And the superiority of men over women. Almost all the differential aspects claimed by Ibn Arabi regarding men and women have been disputed and challenged .
