Not to be confused with western Identity theory.

Identityism is the school of Sufi metaphysics of unity of being traditionally known as Wahdat al-Wujud or Wahdat ul-Wujood (Arabic: Literally, unity of existence) formulated by Ibn Arabi.[1] Identityism is similar to monism in the west and nondualism and advaita vedanta in Hinduism.
