Ibn Arabi [1]

Mim is actually Adam and Muhammad, peace be upon both, and the Ya (y letter in Arabic, sounding as eee) between them is the cause for their mutual linkage, because of the placement of Harf (Divine Alphabet) Illat (Same as Madd prolonged letter usually eeee or oooo or aaaa sound). (Jalal: M sound can be prolonged either through nasalization or addition of stretched eeee between the two ‘M’ sounds i.e. Meeee….eeeeM) This prolonged letter or phoneme allowed Muhammad to act upon Adam (from a distance in time and place and across universes, free of causality) a Spiritual Action, as said by the Prophet: I was a Nabi (Informer) while Adam was still between the water and mud. Conversely Adam acted upon Muhammad a corporeal action (causal action), again by mediation of the agency of Ya (y letter in Arabic, sounding as eee) (i.e. through the genomic and biological processes on this planet.)

Q: Did Ibn Arabi made this up or there was some evidence for it?
A: The Prophet said [2]: When Allah created Adam made him see the virtues of some of his off-springs (and while he was browsing) he saw a radiant light all the way from the back so he asked: O my Lord who is that? And Allah replied: That is your son Admad, he is the Al-Awwal (The first) and he is Al-Akhir (The Last)

Jalal: Until less than 100 years ago we had no idea how human beings are linked to each other, now through the molecular science of Genome we all know and very well know how people are linked in past and in future. Mim is the prolonged phoneme/letter that links the first and the last Prophet, both spiritually and genomically, Muhammad was a Nabi (Informer) informing through the radiation of Nur-Muhammadi, a peculiar form of Nur (Divine Light), from extremely close sanctified nearness which in this Surah we hear as Sabbihi. In return Adam acts upon Muhammad in a molecular causal fashion i.e. via his genome and thus the two form a close loop or a circle.

Hadith Nur Muhammadi [1]

Jabir asked the Prophet: Inform me of the first thing Allah created prior to all other things. Prophet replied: Indeed before all things Allah created the Nur (Divine Light) of your Prophet from ITs own Nur, and made this Light to traverse via Hu’s power however where Allah willed, and at that time there were no Lauh (Tablet) no Qalam (Pen) no Paradise no hell no angels no heaves no earth no sun no moon no Jinn and no human being, and when Allah willed to create the people divided this light into four parts:
1.    From first portion created Qalam (Pen)
2.    From the second portion created the Lauh (Tablet)
3.    From the third portion the ‘Arsh (Throne)
And then portioned the remaining fourth portion, again into four portions:
1.    The foundation of the ‘Arsh (Throne)
2.    The Kursi (Chair)
3.    The angels
And then portioned the remaining fourth, again into four portions:
1.    Heavens
2.    The two earths
3.    Paradise and Hell
And the portioned the remaining fourth, again into four portions:
1.    The Nur (Divine Light) of the believers’ eyes
2.    The Nur (Divine Light) of the believers’ heart i.e. Ma’refat (Divine Gnosis)
3.    The Nur (Divine Light) of the humanity and that is the Tauhid (Divine Oneness) i.e. “There is no deity but Allah and Muhammad is Allah’s Messenger”

Note: Shibr Amlasi said with regards to Allah creating the Prophet’s light from ITs own Light: This does not mean that the substance of Muhammad’s light was made up of Allah’s light or essence! It rather means that Allah willed the formation of a Light that was without participation of anything from Allah’s Dhāt (Most Innate Essence). (or any other intermediary created object)

In other words when Allah created the Nur (Divine Light) of Muhammad, there was no other entity in the creation or you may say this Light was not entangled with anything else. When Allah created from this light other lights/objects, each time a new creation was added the said light fell into an ever-more superimposed state i.e. imposed by the existence of something a priori, or you may say less pure. 

Sufis believe that the human creation is a circle, with Adam being the first point of the circle and going around the circumference all the way to reach to Muhammad who is the last point and indeed the first point too! Since the circle’s first and last points are one and the same. So really Adam and Muhammad where both the first primordial fathers of humanity, however one was the template for Nafs (Self) i.e. Adam and one template for Ruh (Soul) i.e. Muhammad.

Adam being the prophet and Muhammad being the prophet this gives the Ma’refat (Divine Gnosis) for what it means: The last of prophets!

This Light is called Nur-Mahammadi (Muhammad’s Light).
