Ibn Arabi describes in his Kitab Ayyam Al-Sha n the different kinds of events that are particularly associated with each Day of the seven Days of the original divine 'Week' of event. There he also gives a ratio of 'contribution' by each one of the seven heavens. These mysterious symbolic data and concepts are not very easy to understand. However, we will summarize his remarks in the following table for reference, although any attempt to interpret them would require a separate extensive study.

This data in Table IV.4 is extracted from Kitab Ayyam Al-Sha n: (pp. 11-16). The contributions are stated to be increments of one-fourth, probably alluding to the equal role of the four basic elements of material Nature (fire, air, water, and earth). The -/- sign means that the corresponding data is not given in the text. For Wednesday, Ibn Arabi does not give detailed numbers, but simply says (p. 14) that 'God ordered the spiritual realities to help the Soul according to their corresponding strength'. The '↓' indicates that the contribution is done only by way of descent. Some of the data in this table are incomplete or not certain, as the meaning of the original text is often unclear.[71]
