Al-Khātib Abū al-Rab‘i Muhammad ibn al-Layth in his book Shifā’ al-sudūr says: The first thing Allāh created is the light of Muhammad ﷺ and that light came and prostrated before Allāh. Allāh divided it into four parts and created from the first part the Throne, from the second the Pen, from the third the Tablet, and then similarly He subdivided the fourth part into parts and created the rest of creation. Therefore the light of the Throne is from the light of the Prophet ﷺ, the light of the Pen is from the light of the Prophet ﷺ, the light of the Tablet is from the light of the Prophet ﷺ, the light of day, the light of knowledge, the light of the sun and the moon, and the light of vision and sight are all from the light of the Prophet ﷺ. (Ibn al-Hajj al-Abdarī’s (Muhammad ibn Muhammad d. 736) book al-Madkhal from 2:34 of the edition published by Dar al-kitāb al-‘arabī, Beirut)
Ibn ‘Abbās (r) said: Verily the spirit of the Prophet ﷺ was a light in front of Allāh two thousand years before he created Adam. That light glorified Him and the angels joined in its glorification. When Allāh created Adam, he cast that light into his loins.( Suyūtī said in Manāhil al-safa (p. 53 #128): “Ibn Abi ‘Umar al-‘Adanī relates it in his Musnad.” In Takhrīj ahādīth sharh al-mawāqif (p. 32 #12) Suyūtī cites it with the wording: “The Quraysh were a light in front of Allāh.”
Alī ibn al-Husayn (r) related from his father (r), who related from his grandfather said that the Prophet ﷺ said: I was a light in front of my Lord for fourteen thousand years before He created Adam.(Imām Āhmad in his Fadā’il al-sahāba (2:663 #1130), Dhahabī in Mīzān al-i’tidāl (1:235), and al-Tabarī in al-Riyād al-nādirā (2:164, 3:154))
It is this light, which was sent to this earth, which became manifest when the Prophet was born.
Al-Qurtubī says: “Kindled from a blessed tree, an olive,”can be taken to refer to the Prophets, in which case Adam would be the blessed tree, or Ibrahim because Allāh called him “blessed.” It is that blessed familial tree from which its most blessed fruit, our master Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was born.
Imām as-Suyūtī said in al-Riyād al-aniqa: Ibn Jubayr (r) and K‘ab al-Āhbar (r) said, “What is meant by the second light [in “light upon light”] is the Prophet ﷺ because he is the Messenger and the Expositor and the Conveyor from Allāh of what is enlightening and manifest.” K‘ab, referring to “whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself) though no fire touched it” said, “Its oil well nigh would shine because the Prophet well nigh would be known to the people even if he did not say that he was a Prophet, just as that oil would send forth light without a fire.” In that regard the Prophet ﷺ said, “The night I was delivered my mother saw a light that lit the castles of Damascus so that she could see them.” (al-Hākim in his Mustadrak (2:616-617), Āhmad in his Musnad (4:184), and Bayhaqī in Dalā’il al-nubūwwa (1:110, 2:8). Ibn Kathīr in Mawlid rasūl Allāh and his Tafsīr (4:360). Haythamī cites it in Majma’ al-zawā’id (8:221)
The light of the Prophet ﷺ is the source of the light of all believers, for while all things were created from his light, the believers were created in a special way.
