The application of imagination in theoretical mysticism and mystical visions has always drawn the attention of scholars in visionary sciences and hence of special importance. Therefore imagination plays crucial role in realization and explanation of great number of visions faced by mystics. In explaining the problem, Ibn Arabi divided imagination into two contiguous and discontiguous. In his view contiguous imagination is one of the inner faculties of human being that acts as intermediate between intellect and faculty of sense. Discontiguous imagination, however, is real and independent world in the scheme of reality which is located between world of intellect and that of senses. Since contiguous imagination is a way to discontiguous one and they are ontologically related, the imaginal forms in the discontiguous world can be seen by men of vision in both dream and awakening. This experience which is called formal vision is of different degrees the highest of which is prophetic revelation.
