a snake that encircles a mountain which covers the whole world?!?!?

i seriously hope you guys dont really believe this.

there is no authentic tradition incidcating belief in such a thing.

Well, Ibn 'Arabi is actually quoting from some companion (al-Sadrani) who said that he went to this Mountain Qaf and the snake spoke to him and asked him how was Abu Madyan (another Sufi, I think). So are you saying this person al-Sadrani was lying, or Ibn 'Arabi made this up from himself?
