Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,
Dearest brothers and beloved friends, I come with a question regarding the realities of the Beloved of God, our Master, Seal of the Prophets, Muhammad ibn Abdillah (ﷺ), may we increase in salawat upon him. My question is regarding the commonly spoken of, at least in the realm of Tasawwuf, idea of the first creation being the Nur of Al Mustafa (ﷺ). Is this true? I have heard much discussion about the narrations regarding the topic being authentic or inauthentic. That our Master (ﷺ) was the first created Prophet (upon them all be peace), and was sent as the final Prophet (ﷺ) as the apex of perfection manifest as a human being and as a Light from Allah, as described in the Holy and Wise Qur'an. I would really appreciate hearing an explanation regarding this from our perspective and with evidence from our Akabir if possible, may Allah have mercy upon them.
(To clarify, many of the narrations I've heard regarding this come from al-Khasa’is al-Kubra, the work of Imam al-Suyuti rahimaullah)
Jazakallah khayr.
