Ethics and mysticism are two transcendental desires of human. Therefore, deliberation on the proportion of mysticism and ethics is important for scholars of the both fields. Some scholars, however, have considered mysticism as incompatible with ethics and some others as something beyond it. Mystics` hermit and their state of being in full meditation and introspection have caused some scholars think ethics and philanthropy not being apparent in the mystics’ lives. On the other hand, neither ethics nor mysticism could be ignored. The desired state is their collection. This paper aims at removing the doubt of incompatibility between ethics and mysticism, and proposing a mystical theory about the origin of ethics through reflecting on the mystical teachings. The gist of mystical theory of ethics is that: the risen love from mystical theology is the source of ethics and philanthropy
Keywords: mysticism, ethics, mystical theory of ethics, mystical awareness, divine love, love to the self, philanthropy.
