The secret of the light of Prophet ﷺ

The secret of the light of Prophet ﷺ

Tafsirs state that the reason why shaytan (Satan) refused to prostrate to

 Nabiy Adam عليه السلام was because Allah ta'ala had placed the light of RasulAllah ﷺ in Adam's عليه السلام forehead.

Some scholars are awliya who can see very well and have knowledge given to them by Allah. They say when Allah (swt) created the Light of Prophet ﷺ, He created that Light not from His Essence, Dhaatullah, but from His Name “an-Noor.” That Light was in that Essence, and it is what we know from the word “an-Noor,” which is not a word, but rather the secret of Prophet ﷺ and creation. It appeared to Prophet ﷺ as a word or essence, and then all the other Beautiful Names and Attributes appeared one after the other, with no beginning and no end.

With the Light that Allah (swt) gave him, Prophet ﷺ was able to see the secrets of all these Beautiful Names and Attributes that appeared endlessly, and he dressed his ummah with them. He saw the lights of the awliya and scholars and gave to them according to their capacities. A wali was given so he could guide and help people to see these secrets, while a normal person was given less because their capacity would be less.

He dressed them with “laa ilaaha illa-Llah” and gave according to the dhikr of those four words, “SubhaanAllah, alhamdulillah, laa ilaaha illa-Llah, Allahu Akbar.” On the Day of Judgment, they will be dressed like a light on a dark night with a rainbow of Beautiful Names of Allah (swt)! They will be known as the lovers and followers of Prophet (s) and Allah (swt) will know them when He sees them.
